Marigot: -- The head of communications at the Collectivity it is understood was issued with a warning letter on Friday after it was determined that she insulted the residents of Grand Case during the Schoelcher fete.
SMN News was reliably informed that the head of communications pushed herself in the line to get food on more than one occasion and she was asked by the residents of Grand Case to join the line if she wanted so much food. The source said the head of communications insulted the local residents telling them that she is the one that organized a fete for Grand Case and no one has the right to tell her anything.

The foreign worker also called the reporter on Thursday and threatens him telling him that she would also cut him from the Collectivity mailing list since the reporter had no right to print the article in one of the daily newspapers. SMN News understands that the head of communications was aggressive and insulted the reporter when she called him on Thursday.
