West Bank Man Wins $1.6M Damages

A West Bank Demerara man is set to receive $1.6 million in damages after the High Court ruled his arrest and detention were unlawful, violating his constitutional right to liberty. Detained from November 4 to 18, 2024, for allegedly disorderly behavior while asking about his brother’s shooting, Mikhail Miggins was never charged. The court dismissed the original fraud charge as baseless and found the arrest stemmed from a civil furniture dispute—not a crime. Though he was held four days without justification or bail denial, claims for assault, battery, or property loss were rejected due to insufficient evidence.
