  • Embattled JUTC executive could take legal action

    Friday, 02 January 2009


    The findings of Contractor General Greg Christie into alleged corruption at the Jamaica Urban Transit Company (JUTC) could be the subject of a legal challenge.

    Lawyers for embattled executive head of the Jamaica Urban Transit Company Bindley Sangster are taking a detailed look at the methods used by the Contractor General to come up with his findings of alleged wrong doing at the bus company.

    Mr. Sangster is now on a leave of absence from official duties.

    His lawyers have been combing through the 104-page report which was made public in early December.

    A source told RJR News that the lawyers have been compiling crucial information which they will use as the basis for a likely challenge to the findings.

    The report among other things recommended criminal charges after the Contractor General said he found evidence that false information was given to him during the investigations.

    The report which was dispatched to Director of Public Prosecutions Paula Llewellyn was sent to the police after the DPP stated that her office was constrained to make a ruling without sufficient evidence.
