Breaking News: Nitin Chinien announces PM Ramgoolam's car to be blocked !

The singer and former animator of the Mauritius Broadcasting Corporation [MBC] Nitin Chinien, announces on a video post on youtube that a crowd will block and stop the Prime Minister of Mauritius, Navinchandra Ramgoolam's car. He continued further in inviting the chairman of the MBC, Dan callikhan to put a police record.

 

The ex-animator of the M.B.C says that he has not been paid his salaries and 3 months' notice before being sacked and wants to get paid after 2 years of unemployment. He further states that the police cannot lay hands on him and that he is well protected by the ''ti-dimoune''. 

This new episode could also somehow be some kind of drama viral video the singer and former former animator could be doing. We have no idea if what he is saying is about a real cause to get his unpaid salaries or if this is some sci-fi movie he is making using youtube.

We, however, advice user discretion!,  and wish to point out that the blog has nothing to do with the author of this video, know nothing on the motives of the person who uploaded the video on youtube.com , has no information regarding the allegations in the video and that we are publishing this solely as for entertainment purposes. 

Though, we usually promote activism and freedom of information, this post is solely meant for sharing a dramatic entertainment video with no prejudice to any third parties. 

Free Alain Bertrand! Free Mauritius

Alain Bertrand, an activist for the association Azir Moris, has been arrested for trying to deploy a banner with "NO TO COAL" written on it. This action was supposed to raise awareness of the population with regards to the project of the construction of a coal powered plant in Albion. This project is regarded as a threat to the environment by many ecologists locally and abroad. 

Already 3 days that Alain Bertrand is being detained in police custody and the police opposed his appeal to obtain a caution. He will be remanded to police cell until the 20th of March until the next court hearing.

At this stage, we cannot remain insensible to the plight of this man who only wanted to raise awareness about the protection of the environment which is important for everyone living on the island as we are all on the same ship. 

We understand the concerns of the authority that the Mauritian flag should not be disrespected and as patriots we feel that the Mauritian flag has been used with a lot of disrespect while been held under an helicopter for the Independence day or when a parachutist had it attached in his back, it is not to be used like a mantle. 

We strongly feel that it is adding insult to injury that is remanding him to police cell while criminals and others are given caution and liberty on parole as the man has shown that his type of protest is a pacific one and had absolutely no intentions of hurting people or disrupting public order. 

I, therefore, urge the population and the concerned authorities to liberate this fighter for the nature on humanitarian grounds as his intentions were only to safeguard the nature for ourselves and our children. I urge my dear readers to lobby for the release of Alain Bertrand. If, like us, you feel that he deserves to be a Free Man and that we need a Free Mauritius where pacific protests can take place, copy the picture below and share it on your facebook and with your friends.
