Warner: Integrity Commission has tapes

by

20150623

In­de­pen­dent Lib­er­al Par­ty (ILP) po­lit­i­cal leader Jack Warn­er says he de­liv­ered au­dio files, pho­tographs, lo­ca­tions and oth­er in­for­ma­tion re­gard­ing al­le­ga­tion­sof mis­con­duct by Prime Min­is­ter Kam­la Per­sad-Bisses­sar to the In­tegri­ty Com­mis­sion in 2013.

Warn­er re­vealed this to the me­dia to­day dur­ing a press con­fer­ence at his ILP head of­fice in Port-of-Spain.

As he played au­dio tapes for the pub­lic, Warn­er said the com­mis­sion's on­ly re­spons­es to him were a let­ter ac­knowl­edg­ing re­ceipt of the in­for­ma­tion, and a piece of cor­re­spon­dence one year lat­er in­di­cat­ing that they were do­ing a vo­cal analy­sis on the au­dio tape.

Af­ter play­ing a tape, where an al­leged whis­tle-blow­er spoke halt­ing­ly about col­lect­ing pay­ment of $2 mil­lion for a house and a fur­ther $2.5 mil­lion, Warn­er said it was his re­spon­si­bil­i­ty to bring the ev­i­dence to the cit­i­zens of T&T.

"Every­thing you have heard here I took to the In­tegri­ty Com­mis­sion two years ago. Not a soul was touched," Warn­er said.

He said he didn't go to the po­lice be­cause he thought they may have been com­pro­mised.

"Two years lat­er, noth­ing has been done," he said.
