Prime Minister of St Vincent and the Grenadines Dr. Ralph Gonsalves is receiving medical treatment after he was injured while returning to a parliament sitting this evening where fiery protests are happening in the capital city of Kingstown.
Press Secretary to the Prime Minister Sehon Marshall said from what has been gathered, it would appear that a protester threw some object that struck the prime minister and caused him to be injured. Gonsalves was taken to the Milton Cato Memorial Hospital. Agriculture Minister Saboto Caesar who returned to the parliament sitting showed blood splatters on his shirt which he said belong to ‘Comrade Ralph.’
People are protesting in front of the Parliament against proposed amendments to the Public Health Act. Nature Isle News (NIN) is following the matter and will bring you further details.
