PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad - The lone commissioner in the enquiry into the collapse of CL Financial Limited, Sir Anthony Colman, QC, yesterday ruled that Clico business magnate Lawrence Duprey and former group financial director of CL Financial, Andre Monteil, must present themselves to testify at the ongoing enquiry.
Colman, in a 32-page ruling delivered yesterday and distributed to various attorneys seeking an interest at the enquiry, gave seven directions to Duprey and Monteil, after an application by the men that they not testify at the enquiry because the police had started a criminal probe into the matter. In his ruling, Colman directed that Duprey and Monteil once again be served with summonses and must attend the hearing.
