An in­ci­dent that re­port­ed­ly oc­curred 33 years ago at St Mary’s Col­lege resur­faced on so­cial me­dia on Mon­day just as Stu­art Young was ap­point­ed prime min­is­ter.

In a Face­book post mak­ing the rounds un­der the name Na­dia Khan, the poster claims that her broth­er, Im­ran Khan, who at­tend­ed St Mary’s Col­lege, was in­volved in a phys­i­cal al­ter­ca­tion on the school com­pound where he re­port­ed­ly hit fel­low stu­dent Stu­art Young with a ba­ton.

The post, how­ev­er, went on to claim that the act of ag­gres­sion was in re­tal­i­a­tion for some­thing Young would have re­port­ed­ly done.

There was al­so a claim that Khan was ex­pelled and not al­lowed to write the CXC ex­am­i­na­tions.

Guardian Me­dia reached out to Young about the al­leged in­ci­dent, which was de­tailed in sev­er­al ar­ti­cles car­ried in the now de­funct Trinidad Mir­ror news­pa­per. The first ar­ti­cle ap­peared in the first quar­ter of 1992.

How­ev­er, there was no re­sponse up to pub­li­ca­tion time.
