And, the three candidates for leader are Patrick Faber, John Saldivar
and Wilfred Elrington.
Today, the press asked the Chairman how Saldivar is still in the
running - after he was made to step down as leader and cast out of
Cabinet after the Lev Dermen revelation.
Peyrefitte says Saldivar Committed no crime:
Hon. Michael Peyrefitte - Minister of National Security
"There was nothing in our view that prevented him from contesting for
leadership. Whatever is out there, then the delegates will decide weather
or not that is not significant enough for them to vote for him or
significant to them not to vote for him, that's their choice but we based
on our investigation so far, no laws were broken, he wasn't accused of
anything illegal in Belize and he is running to be the political leader of
one of the mass parties of Belize. So, we didn't see anything there that
would disqualify any of the candidates."
