UK Alleged to be Forcing Turks and Caicos Citizens to make Criminal Allegations Against Foreign Developers

By: John Glasgow

It is alleged that members of the SIPT [UK special prosecution team] went to Salt Cay yesterday harassing senior citizens trying to coerce them into signing false statements to oust Mario Hoffman and other developers. What kind of people would harass senior citizens and try to trick them to sign statements which they never made? Only lowlife contemptable Brits with no conscience of fair play and decency would commit such low down acts. If our senior citizens are not safe and afforded the respect they deserve then who is safe in the Turks and Caicos Islands?

However I am told that those senior citizens represented themselves well and race those investigators asses from in front of their doors. According to information received, the senior citizens reminded the SIPT team members that the British totally neglected the Island of Salt Cay and its residents during hurricane IKE and if it wasn't for Mario Hoffman and other developers Salt Cay residents may not have survived. I am proud of our senior citizens who light a fire under the SIPT team tails and race them out of town.

My concern now is that the resting places/grave yards of our love ones may not be safe. It appears that the SIPT Team is so desperate for information that I would not put it pass them to lay in wait for the spirits of our love ones and harass them for information. This investigation appears to have hit a ghost trail and it is clear that the investigators are now clutching at straws and jumping at shadows. I once again would like to urge SIPT over jealous investigators if these allegations are true to tone down and record exactly what they are told and not what they would like to hear.

It appears that the harassment and intimidation are not only confined to the the SIPT investigation Team. It now appears that the interim regime and the AG chambers are prepared to devote considerable time and resources to deny this lonely idiotic blogger his constitutional rights to free speech and to disseminate information in the public's interest. This is tantamount to an abuse of office. There are many serious problems in the Turks and Caicos which demand the full and undivided attention of the interim regime. Instead it appears that it is more important to the interim regime to threaten and intimidate the editor of the TCI POST. I condemn this in the strongest possible way.

It is the duty of the interim administration to engage the public in an on going conversation to allay their fears and to convince them that policy decisions made by the interim regime are in the best interest of the people of the Turks and Caicos. Instead it appears that the interim regime would spare no efforts to muzzle this editor. I wish to put the interim regime on notice as of now in case they did not get the message that they would have to jail me or assasinate me to shut me up. Threats of legal actions are nothing more than an attempt to shut me up and I don't take kindly to such threats. I will continue to ask hard questons of the interim regime and I expect nothing less than honest straight forward statements from those who took it on themselves to govern me without my consent.
