posted (October 1, 2024)
And the PM doesn't believe Minister Perez was being set up. Actually, he gave credit to the peddler for coming up with what he referred to as an "ingenious" plan to try and hide the drugs from the police.

John Briceno, Prime Minister
"No I don't think someone is trying to set him up. I think someone was smart because Andre has not been using his boat, it's just docked there for more than six months, he has not used the boat and they felt that if they put anything there, the police will not think about going to search his boat but they didn't care if it was Honorable Andre Perez's boat, they went to check and they found drugs but it has been abundantly clear that Andre has not been using his boat and, you have to give it to them, they're quite ingenious. They tried to - you hide it in front of everybody in effect."
