Cheap fiction
THE EDITOR: I do not believe that the newspapers in any country should practise the art of publishing fiction to pass it off as genuine factual reporting, regardless of how much it will boost its rates. That is why it is difficult to believe the story about Vernon Paul. It smacks of cheap fiction. It has a core of truth about it, the cocaine and "bombs" were found in Sadiq Baksh’s water tank. Who placed it there is still to be determined. There are several ideas about how it got there, but these are to be proven. Now comes the claim from a so-called DEA agent to be informed about the affair. The only thing is that he blames both the UNC (in the report) and the PNM (in another) of committing or having a hand in the whole affair. His first story allegedly given to a weekly newspaper has him claiming he was approached by the UNC, but now he has switched sides to blame the PNM. ENZO FORTUNE De Gannes Street Arima
