Pradoville probe gathering steam

Chairman of the Central Housing and Planning Authority (CH&PA) Hamilton Green said last evening that the Special Organized Crime Unit (SOCU) has written asking for information which will assist in the probe into the allocations of land at ‘Pradoville 2’, Sparendaam, East Coast Demerara.

Green said that a letter requesting information was received on Tuesday. This follows one sent earlier. He said that in the letters there were “a lot of questions about the way the land was allocated”. He said that it is being suggested that the allocation process was far from proper.

According to Green he has since instructed CH&PA officers that they “must co-operate” and provide the information being asked for.
