Contractor sacked from El Dorado road project declines comment

N&S General Engineering Contracting Services yesterday declined to comment on the contract for the El Dorado road which it failed to start some eight months after receiving funds for mobilization resulting in Minister Juan Edghill ordering the termination of the contract on Friday.

Shazad Sattaur, 36, of N&S General Engineering Contracting Services when contacted yesterday morning initially agreed to comment on the difficulties the company encountered in starting the project.

He asked that the Sunday Stabroek make contact with him at 2 pm for the interview. However, when that was done the contractor said that he had received a letter to meet with a government official  and would no longer want to comment on the matter at this stage.
