The Cuban Male Nurse (at the back) as he emerged from CID Office Monday after Police questioned him on allegations of sexual molestation at the St. George¹s General Hospital.

A St. David¹s mother of two embroiled in the sexual molestation accusation against a Cuban male nurse on the island would like the Royal Grenada Police Force (RGPF) to thoroughly investigate the matter and take the appropriate action.

The young lady confirmed this to GRENADA TODAY on Tuesday in the presence of her attorney-at-law, Derek Sylvester and her male companion. She told this newspaper that she had instructed Sylvester to convey her position on the issue to the relevant persons handling the investigation within the police force.

Officers of the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) spent nearly three hours Monday interviewing the Cuban male nurse at their head office on Hillsborough Street, St. George¹s.He was accompanied by another male and two female persons, believed to be Cubans.

The woman complained a week ago to the police that the Cuban placed his mouth on her private parts while helping to prepare her for surgery at the hospital. The young lady took strong offense to those who are alleging that she had made up the story in order to try and extort money out of the Cuban.

She did not rule out taking a lie-detector test if the Cuban male nurse was also prepared to take one in order to get at the truth of the matter. Her boyfriend who also spoke to this newspaper lashed out at statements made about the incident by Health Minister Ann David Antoine.

He said the minister was sending out the wrong message by implying that the matter should be treated more sensitive in light of the amount of assistance given to the island by Cuba¹s Fidel Castro.

³She (my girl friend) needs respect. People like him (the Cuban Male Nurse) are not needed in Grenada², he remarked. According to the boy friend, Minister David-Antoine was seemingly suggesting that Grenadian women can be used ³as prostitutes because they (government) are getting help².

³It (the statement) makes me more upset than before², he added. ³She (the young mother) is somebody and I would stand up for her. No matter what I have to do, I would stand up for her. I want them (government) to know that she is not a dog and nobody will run over her. You better believe that², he said.

The boyfriend felt that the Keith Mitchell-led government was engaging in double standard on the issue. ³If it was a poor Grenadian man who did it (sexual molestation), they would have crucified him², said the boy friend who has two young ones with his girlfriend.

Meanwhile, well-placed sources told this newspaper that a senior government official called CID giving instructions to the effect that the Cuban suspect should not be prosecuted by the police over the allegation made against him.

When questioned Tuesday by local journalists, Jamaican-born Legal Advisor to Cabinet, Hugh Wildman denied that he had made any such call to the police. Wildman said that he is not fully aware of the incident and is not involved in the matter whatsoever.

On completion of their investigations, the police are expected to submit the case file to the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) for further instructions on the matter.
