Jagdeo, Luncheon arrested in Pradoville 2 probe
-Robert Persaud also questioned
By STAFF EDITOR March 7, 2017
Former President Bharrat Jagdeo and former Head of the Presidential Secretariat, Dr Roger Luncheon were this afternoon arrested in connection with the Pradoville 2 probe.
Earlier, Lisaveta Ramotar had been detained by the Special Organised Crime Unit (SOCU) in connection with the ongoing probe into the Pradoville 2 housing scheme. Ramotar, the daughter of former President Donald Ramotar, has been taken to the SOCU office.
Former President Bharrat Jagdeo (left) at his office on Church Street shortly before he left for the SOCU office where he was placed under arrest.
SOCU officials and Police later went to the Office of the Leader of the Opposition, Bharrat Jagdeo. There they arrested Dr Luncheon. He was then taken to the SOCU office. Jagdeo later went to the SOCU office on Camp Road along with Nandlall. He was placed under arrest at the SOCU office.
SOCU sources say charges will be laid against the three plus former Minister of Natural Resources, Robert Persaud among others.
The special investigation of the Sparendaam Housing Project, better known as Pradoville 2, which was part of a larger probe of the financial operations of the Central Housing and Planning Authority (CHPA), was conducted by accounting firm Ram & McRae, which found that awardees grossly underpaid for the lots by a total of nearly $250 million, while the state-owned National Industrial and Commercial Investments Limited (NICIL), National Communications Network (NCN) and Guyana Power and Light Inc (GPL) were never reimbursed for millions spent to execute preparatory works.

I don't like to comment on things political in GT because most ppl dodge from the subject. My only comment on this saga will be this:
I have a big fucking problem with Gov minister etc, given their salary scale, paying 1.5 million GYD for prime real estate at dimensions of 100 X 100 and greater when a 'small man' like me, goes into housing with a fraction of their salary gets told that based on my salary scale, my land would cost 1.5 - 2 Million for an 80 x 40 plot of land at the back of a rough neighbourhood (Mocha Arcadia).
If no one sees an issue with that and can only shout Witch Hunt, then I can't be bothered to add anything else to the dialogue.
