Man thanks Mia for saving life

THE WORK DONE by his then lawyer was repaid with a bear hug last night.

Political leader of the Barbados Labour Party and Opposition Leader, Mia Mottley, met the man whom she saved from the hangman’s noose as she introduced pharmacist and BLP candidate Adrian Forde to the Christ Church West Central constituency last night.

It was there that resident Cameron Holder met the criminal lawyer who pleaded his case before the Court of Appeal in 1994. His sentence was subsequently reduced to manslaughter.
