PPP General Secretary Bharrat Jagdeo on Thursday said that remarks he made about taking secrets to the grave had nothing to do with information on killings during the 2002-9 crime wave but related to the need to protect the identities of persons who provided important information.
At a press conference at Freedom House, Jagdeo was responding to a letter from the family of PPP/C Minister Satyadeow `Sash’ Sawh who was gunned down along with relatives and an employee in 2006.
Sawh’s son, Roger had penned a letter in Thursday’s edition of Stabroek News expressing concern that Jagdeo’s “go to the grave” remarks at a night of reflection for the late Dr Roger Luncheon pertained to material information about the deaths from that period.
