It says, and we quote, "As part of the constitutional structure of our democracy, Her Excellency, the Governor General, is the representative of the Crown. ….Our laws further mandates that it is unlawful for any person to bring the Governor General in her official capacity into contempt, disrepute or disaffection.

Whether one agrees or disagrees with this, the fact remains that this is what the supreme law of the country and the laws of Belize commands.

Recent statements made by Anthony "Boots" Martinez to the media scandalizing and bringing Her Excellency into disrepute are unwarranted, unprecedented and unlawful.
