While former People’s Progressive Party/Civic Minister Robert Persaud yesterday said that he was amenable to a mutually acceptable resolution in the Pradoville 2 matter, Anil Nandlall, legal representative of the People’s Progressive Party General Secretary Bharrat Jagdeo and other former ministers, said that option has been “ruled out”.
“That option is ruled out…Robert Persaud is not a member of the PPP. He is free to retain his own counsel and free to make his own decision as he has done which is different from ours,” Nandlall told Stabroek News last evening.
Breaking his silence, since Tuesday, when he was questioned by Special Organised Crime Unit (SOCU) officers, at the Agency’s Camp Street Headquarters, Persaud hinted that he would be ready to settle the price difference with the state, if it proves that the land was sold to him for an undervalued price.
