Opposition Leader accuses PM Gonsalves of lying about BBC matter

KINGSTOWN, St. Vincent, CMC – Opposition Leader Arnhim Eustace has accused Prime Minister Dr. Ralph Gonsalves of not telling the truth when he told the nation that two journalists from the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) had said he (Eustace) was the source of information that a foreign investor had left a briefcase with money at the office of the prime minister recently.
“He is a liar,” Eustace said on his weekly radio programme, but acknowledged that he had been interviewed by the journalists last week as part of their investigation of Harlequin, the company that owns Buccament Bay Resort here.
“Where could I get information of his accepting anything? I am saying that Gonsalves is a liar when it comes to that,” Eustace said on his radio programme, sponsored by his New Democratic Party (NDP).
