Apparently he is back in Trinidad after a controversial resignation. What are your thoughts about this scandal?

"The Attorney General does not prosecute, that is a matter for the DPP (Director of Public Prosecutions)" Jeremie said, adding that DPP Roger Gaspard was out of the country and would not be back until tomorrow night.

According to the news some days ago, the police is trying to get the financial records relating to former Udecott chairman Calder Hart.
QUOTE POLICE this week served court orders on bank officials calling for financial records relating to former Udecott chairman Calder Hart, after an application was lodged in secret in the High Court by the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) on behalf of a team of investigators.
As a probe into the former Udecott chairman quietly intensified, the police closed-in on crucial bank records which could be key in unravelling a web of issues surrounding Udecott's $1.1 billion Brian Lara Cricket Academy at Tarouba.
Sunday Newsday understands the court orders were obtained by the police after an ex parte application was lodged by the DPP under the Prevention of Corruption Act.
