So only the “well known” lawyer remains clothed in secrecy.
The Bahamas judiciary system climbs ever higher up the pol of global corruption…

There’s an old saying ‘give your other end a chance’..good advice for foolish birdies.

The problem with disparaging a man like Duane Sands, “he can never see anything good and worthy about the Bahamas” is that he’s educated at the most prestigious US universities, Tufts and John Hopkins, he could practice anywhere but he came back here to establish the first heart surgery program in the Bahamas and here is where he practices-on Bahamians and all else who wander in needing his care.
So there’s that..

Then this business about the “esteemed” AG Pinder..

What Dr Sands doesn’t come out and say is that the AG lied about former PM Christie and his ‘advisor’ Sir Beltron’s substantial role in the demise of Mr Izmirilian’s endeavour the Baha Mar project.
In the judgement handed down the judge states the frauds perpetrated by CCA etc etc., (and one of those ‘etc’ is the Bahamas gov’t, former PM Christie and tag team of Beltron and Leslie Bethel) directly caused that project to fail to meet substantial completion.

That they lied repeatedly, promising an opening of March 27, 2015 when they had in fact been in negotiations with said ‘advisors’ and gov’t since at least 2014 for the manner in which they’d take over the project and seem to cause Izmirlian to default.

It’s all there in discovery and direct testimony of the CCA principal Tiger Wu.

The monies paid to the Bethels from 2014 on, there’s the email to Liu of CCA from the good sir after CCA missed the date and were shaking Izmirlian down for more $$.
“How do YOU want the manner of negotiations to proceed?
refusing to complete the project wanother “how to you want the manner of negotiations to proceed?” suggesting bringing in another partner within 90 days adding “such a suggestion should come from the Bank (CEXIM) and not the government” to prove the government is not trying to push Izmirlian out”
Makes for some very interesting reading!

Yet we’re not just talking about allegations of fraud, rather a proven case of fraudulent behavior in a court of law, and that makes CCA’s declaration of bankruptcy a flimsily disguised attempt to circumvent their court ordered payment for judgement to Mr Izmirlian.

And you persist in believing this bankruptcy is not a fraud and rather a signal of China’s fear for their investments now that Trump has returned to the White House?
Think again, recalling Trump’s reputation for talking out of both sides of his mouth.

In 2015 the Chinese had $14.7B in direct foreign investments in the US, however by 2020 their US investments had reached $36.7B…

Walker’s candidacy and promotion by Trump in 2020 was an insult to the citizens of GA
Now this numbskull is being foisted upon this country, insult to the Bahamas and the services provided to Americans by the US Embassy!

Birdie is a prime example of the problem here in the Bahamas, nobody will admit to the fundamental lack of concern over their own unethical acts, and/or those of their family, their pol party, their Church-their Pastor who flies round in his helicopter (the cost of which would keep how many families fed?)
Then it’s a plot agin them, agin black people, political shenanigans, the excuses are endless, shameful.and unacceptable.

How can any Bahamian who refuses to govern their own unethical behavior, find the wherewithal to preach to anyone? What to they possess besides their own self entitlement for which to “stand tall”?

If one is not a positive example to their community, children and/or nation are they not then hypocrites?

How can you teach your children about God’s love when you act in hatred to your neighbors?Teach them self regulation and reliance when their parents do not, tell them to act morally, do not steal when…?

We’re all sinners right?
So how is it that in this country that we’re all ‘walking tall’?
That we’re not concerned enough about our reputation to actually live our faith but expend our energies in lying and denying to burnish that reputation and not earn it?
Stand tall indeed, self inflated egos of hot air are hardly the stuff of good and true people.

And when will the people know when their government has given ‘clearance’ to investigate the appalling lack of simple human dignity the police bestowed upon Adriel and her Mother, so heinous in fact their lack likely criminally contributed to her death..
Shameful!

One fails to find any lies or improprieties in Dr Minnis’ demand that the PM do his job, that would be acting in the best interests of his fellow citizens and this country
Or perhaps one could why an administration that came to power promising transparency,
an end to corruption, etc etc. now finds itself accused of corruption scandals that top even those when they last were in power!

And why should the job of finding out/sharing the name of the ranking official controlling illicit drug smuggling here be given to Dr Minnis?
Shouldn’t this task rightly belong to the serving PM?

Your ludicrous query serves to further buttress Dr Minnis’ statement that the US Judiciary and DEA operatives obviously had solid intelligence of grave corruption in the Davis&Co administration.

Davis’ silence on this matter (and the other ongoing corruption scandals) which you’ve brought to fore by begging a former PM to intervene, looks very like an admission of guilt.

Chester, Chester! Give up man.
You’re not known for your ability to add clarity to any situation for which you’ve spoken,
indeed one seeking truth would rarely even darken your door much less ‘lend you an ear’.
Stop embarrassing yourself just go away, now.

Really?
We keep hearing about the Kenyan army in the news, and according to Mitchell there are 6 RBDF officers there. They seem to be ghosts, are they hiding?

Given the recent indictments of RPPF and RBDF ‘officials’ and a Chief Petty Officer and a Chief Superintendent of Aviation etc. on drug smuggling, gang membership etc etc., one has to ponder just what the heck these ghosts are up to??

This newspaper believes Davis looks ‘frustrated’?
Surely anyone could easily come up with a better description than ‘frustrated’ given the implications of the US DOJ and DEA continuing to hold their cards close to their vest ending previous periods of cooperative operations!

The man’s appearance alone with pants too short, sweaty and no tie no per usual shiny sleek appearance of say, a harbour rat.

Frustrated?
Bah! Try cornered!
