ST GEORGE‘S, Grenada: Just weeks after
serious questions have been raised concerning the acceptance by Grenada’s
Prime Minister of a sum of cash from a German fraudster, other allegations
have surfaced. A well-placed source has
reported that all is not well with the defunct economic citizenship program
and says the time is right for the Grenadian government to give the names of
all those who bought passports and the records to back up whatever claims are
made. The source further alleged that several
passports were issued after it was officially announced by the government that
it was ending the program.
According to this source, there are persons
who hold Grenadian passports but whose names are not officially recorded, and
that some of the records which are supposed to be at the Immigration
Department are missing.
Head of Immigration Jessmon Prince was not
at his desk when a call was made to comment on the allegation.
Prime Minister Dr Keith Mitchell indicated recently that it is not in the
interest of national security and the country to release the names of persons
who received passports under the economic citizenship program.
