Ex DPP Rajbansie Out! Gov Duncan wants investigation over new contract!
The controversial former DPP has since left the Virgin Islands (VI) and given up his government sponsored McNamara house he was expected to reside in during his new agreement with the MH&SD after his contract was not renewed as DPP.
I was not fired, I walked away-Rajbansie
Mr Rajbansie, a Trinidad and Tobago national, has since denied that he was kicked out of a job with the VI Government but that he took the decision to write the Human Resources Department alerting them that he had no interest in a DPP contract renewal.
It was this news site that first and accurately reported on October 12, 2016 that he had landed a new consultancy assignment with the MH&SD headed by Minister Hon Ronnie W. Skelton, an At Large Member.
The former DPP was expected to conduct an assessment of the policy and legal frameworks and administrative arrangements related to sexual offences.
Governor angry; Wants process investigated
It has also come to our attention by the same senior NDP sources that the unpopular governor John S. Duncan OBE, who has fallen out of favour with the public and the NDP administration, and is just in office waiting until he departs next year, now wants the process investigated on how Mr Rajbansie got the consultant job.
Sources close to the investigation dubbed it a ‘witch hunt’ to get after the most senior Permanent Secretary Mrs Petrona N. Davies and to block the former DPP.
Mr Duncan, who was caught by this news site lying to the public, has little or no credibility left in the Territory and his own integrity is in question, as he has no regards for law and order and the constitution, according to one of his biggest critics- talk show host Edmund G. Maduro.
Others have alleged the United Kingdom Governor may have been angry with the former DPP for saying publicly that there were qualified locals in his office who could have been appointed as DPP, a position that some claimed Mr Duncan pushed to have a UK national fill the post.
It remains unclear who is conducting the investigation as the letter obtained by our newsroom was copied to the Deputy Governor.
Efforts to reach PS Davies for a comment were not successful up to time of publication.
Double standards by Gov Duncan again?
Some have also alleged a double standard where, despite a ton of evidence of corruption, conflict of interest and no one looking out for tax payers from three sources- the Former Auditor General, the House of Assembly’s Public Accounts Committee and a former project Manager Hugh E. Darley- Governor Duncan has refused to call for a Commission of Inquiry over the Ports Development Project.
Mr Rajbansie in recent weeks have lashed out against the media, including this news site, the current senior Magistrate Ms Tamia N. Richards and the decision to appoint Kim Hollis QC as the new DPP.

United we must stand, and if we are divided, they will capture us again. Don't some understand the strategy of 'divide the people', then conquer them? Do not repeat the mistakes of the 'rattering' Houseslaves when there is a plan afoot to free the people from Colonial rule.
