Lawyer Says Nomination Process Opaque

Urmila Banymandhub-Boolell published an interesting open letter to the Chief Justice Sik Yuen in the Forum pages of Le Mauricien on Thursday. In it she deplored that, unlike how it's done in the UK, nobody here really knows how a lawyer is elevated to the rank of Senior Counsel. There were no women in this year's promotion.

She followed up with an interview in Week-End today where she said that she received a lot of support since the open letter but wished more of this support had been public.
