BACK IN COURTLiberian Public Prosecutors Call off Three-week StrikeMonrovia – Liberian state prosecutors have called off a three-week strike which paralyzed courts across the country. The prosecutors, who represent the government in legal cases, were demanding the government increase their monthly salaries and provide benefits, including vehicles. Nyananti Tuah asked me on Monday to talk to the prosecutors to call off the boycott,” said Cllr. Prior to that Senate appearance there had been unsuccessful negotiations involving the Justice Minister, Musa Dean and the leadership of the Liberian National Bar Association to resolve the strike and get the prosecutors back in court.
