Arthur Saldivar; another black eye

Arhtur Saldivar

Well-known attorney and political aspirant Arthur Saldivar appears to be a magnet for publicity, all of it negative, lately. Tonight, he is in trouble with the law in Placencia, and News Five has been able to confirm the Police are contemplating his arrest on a charge of assault.  Reliable sources tell us that the alleged altercation happened at a Board of Director’s meeting at Robert’s Grove Resort in Seine Bight. Saldivar is allegedly the attorney for one of the Directors, and attended the meeting. The other two Directors, we are told, objected to his presence since it was a meeting of directors only. Saldivar then allegedly informed the Board that if he could not be present, the meeting would be void. According to statements taken by the Police, Saldivar then grabbed some papers from one of the Director’s hands, and placed his elbow against that Director’s neck in a threatening manner. It’s positively bizarre, like much of the news surrounding Saldivar lately. At one point this morning, Police were looking for the attorney, and then we are told he went to the Placencia Police Station to give a statement, after which he was allowed to go. Still, we are told Police are considering their options regarding arrest at this time.

    where you at Rod ,no comments on this aspiring P.U.P candidate.Maybe you would not want him in the party anyway because he is not hispanic. You post comments daily on the UDP gorvernment. Do you really think PUP is going to do any better ? I’m not in favor of either party. Belize is doom ,I say let’s give ourselves back to England..
