Former President of the republic, Sir Anerood
Jugnauth (SAJ), recorded a case of criminal defamation against the
communication manager of the Labour Party, MP Nita Deerpalsing at the
Central Criminal Investigation Department (CCID) on Monday.
He stated the MP had alleged during a press conference the he
and Opposition leader, Paul Bérenger, had met MP Cehl Meeah 13 times to
plot against the government in relations to the latest revelations made
by Meeah in the Gros Dereck drug case.
"I have never met Meeah
and the public interest in the case is causing prejudice to my
reputation and integrity. I request the police to start an inquiry in
the matter," said Jugnauth.
He told the press he never discussed
the topic during his political meetings "as I never speak over matters
which I have no proof of."
The former President statement was
recorded by inspector Ujodha under the supervision of superintendent
Yasdev Callee. Deerpalsing had earlier alleged SAJ had several meetings
with Cehl Meeah.
