Dear Editor;
I read with utter disgust the hypocrisy by Mohabir Anil Nandlall, in his statement in which he stated PPP/C government took no to compulsorily acquire Carmichael Street lots. Putting aside his efforts to convince citizens that the PPP/C never took such action.
It’s interesting to note what, Mr. Nandlall said: “that all I did in relation thereto, was to make contact with the owners of the two plots of land and enquire from them whether the lands were for sale.”
Could Nandlall say, on whose behalf did he make contact with the owners to seek information on whether said lots were for sale? After all, he did admit that: “I wish to make it unequivocally clear, that as Attorney-General, I had no intention whatsoever of compulsorily acquiring the said two lots of land and that no step whatsoever was ever taken by the PPP/Civic government to compulsorily acquire the said two lots of land.”
It seems to me, that Mr. Nandlall used his position as Attorney General in an attempt to purchase said lots for either his personal use, or on behalf of his friends.
