Shady Activities at Lands Department on Election Eve

During the media press briefing with Opposition Leader John Briceño this afternoon, Briceño was asked about the late night activities at the Lands Department in Belmopan. Video shows the Land Department opened after nine o’clock with sightings of U.D.P. politicians inside the compound. Briceño says that this is alarming and if the P.U.P. forms the next power, an investigation will be launched.

“It is every concerning what is happening at the Land Department. In the past few weeks they have been fleecing the Lands Department. We have been having lots of problem. I think that it is time for us to be able to quite like especially during the tenure of Gaspar Vega to have a criminal investigation as to what is taking place there. I think  also know we have hear Mister Eddy De La Rosa who has talked about the actual corruption that has taken in the Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Works under Rene Montero. We are going to have a criminal investigation to get to the bottom of it. And if Rene Montero is found guilty then he would to answer. We cannot continue to fleece the government now. That has to stop, especially at a time when people are not even working, they don’t have to eat. These people do not have any conscience.”
