Op­po­si­tion Sen­a­tor Faris Al-Rawi is dar­ing At­tor­ney Gen­er­al Anand Ram­lo­gan to bring the ev­i­dence to sup­port his claims of cor­rup­tion and mis­man­age­ment against the for­mer Patrick Man­ning-led PNM Gov­ern­ment.

He al­so called on Ram­lo­gan to make the al­le­ga­tions out­side the Par­lia­ment.

Al-Rawi made the de­mand dur­ing his con­tri­bu­tion to yes­ter­day's Sen­ate de­bate on a Gov­ern­ment mo­tion to take note of the State of the Econ­o­my.

Ram­lo­gan, in an al­most im­me­di­ate re­sponse, said he in­tend­ed to heed the ad­vice and re­lease the doc­u­men­tary ev­i­dence to sup­port his cor­rup­tion claim. He al­so said he would speak about it with­out the pro­tec­tion of Par­lia­ment.

"I in­tend to re­peat them pub­licly, with­out Par­lia­men­tary priv­i­leges be­cause these are the facts of the mat­ter...So that I take your ad­vice, Sir, but I had al­ready de­cid­ed that these mat­ters will be made pub­lic in­side and out­side the Par­lia­ment," the AG told leg­is­la­tors.–Richard Lord
