<SPAN class=news_body>That's the word from PNP General Secretary Donald Buchanan. “If in due course the persons who have returned the money do present with any <SPAN class=kLink style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: blue! important; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana,Arial; POSITION: relative">documentary</SPAN> evidence, then I will make that public. But I am not giving any commitment about any such disclosure.”
He was responding to a demand from the <SPAN class=kLink style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: blue! important; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana,Arial; POSITION: relative">Jamaica</SPAN> Labour Party (JLP) for the PNP to provide documented proof that the money was returned.
The JLP has warned that further action will be taken if the PNP fails to respond to questions surrounding the alleged return of the Trafigura money.
According to the JLP, the scandal is yet to come to an end due to what it says are many unanswered questions.
The JLP has asked the PNP to disclose the source of the $31 million which it says has been returned to Trafigura and explain whether the money was returned in cash or by wire transfer.</SPAN></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>
