Anand RamloganFormer attorney general Anand Ramlogan was under arrest last night awaiting a decision on his fate this morning.<\/p>\n

After 12 hours of questioning following his dawn arrest by police yesterday, Ramlogan remained in custody at Police Headquarters, Port-of-Spain. This in connection with the witness-tampering allegations made against him in 2015 by Police Complaints Authority chairman David West \u2014a probe of which now appears to have reached a head.
\n
\nLast night, after prolonged questioning and copious notes supplied by Ramlogan, one of his attorneys, Gerald Ramdeen, told the T&T Guardian police were going to seek instructions from the Director of Public Prosecutions. This would likely be on whether to charge Ramlogan today.<\/p>\n

Another of his attorneys, Pamela Elder, SC, said last night that the interview process was a long, exhaustive one.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s quite likely the situation will go into (today). I have no problem with the way the matter\u2019s proceeding. It\u2019s being done fairly,\u201d Elder said.<\/p>\n

The shock arrest of the former People\u2019s Partnership AG began a day of drama for Ramlogan, his family and colleagues.<\/p>\n

It started around 5.30 am when a large party of Fraud Squad police led by deputy Commissioner of Police Harold Phillip, in a detail of almost ten vehicles, swooped down on Ramlogan\u2019s Palmiste, San Fernando home.
