NEW YORK CARIB NEWS — This ruling follows a vigorous legal battle to determine if Kartel and his co-accused were being unlawfully detained. Their attorney, Isat Buchanan, argued that “a conviction must exist for there to be authority to detain” the men. In contrast, state attorneys contended that the Privy Council’s decision to quash the convictions did not amount to an acquittal but rather reverted the men to their pretrial status with active murder charges.
