    With all due respect Mr. Lal-Beharie, there was nothing to ask the authorities in Antigua and Barbuda since he was in transit to another country. They were only following protocol because his name was flagged in the system. The issue has more to do with Trinidad than Antigua.

    Apparently you’re more of a Dunce than Cory Wayland, because you missed the video of Dr. Rowley speaking. It’s in the story. surprised your comment is here this long, seem Antigua.news doesn’t go back to their comments

    I read somewhere that his name came up on the system he was questioned and allowed to board the flight.

    Cory Wayland, you’re running an Antiguan news site, but you focus on the TT story and does not ask anyone in the Antiguan Government about the incident?
    It’s obvious you’re quite a dunce

    Well well well what a ting. Sounds targeted

    This situation is certainly raising a lot of eyebrows. The TTPS’s denial directly contradicts the former PM’s claim, creating a very confusing picture.

    Apparently his name WAS on the list. Be an honest listener, nah. In his closing sentence he asked his Indian successor to explain what he could have done to have his name placed on an Interpol’s list. Stop trying to stir up trouble in/for Antigua!!!!

    This case shows the danger of inaccurate data in international security systems. Who’s safeguarding against misuse or mistakes?

    If Rowley’s name was never on Interpol’s list, then someone must be held accountable. This isn’t just a ‘mix-up’, l it’s a violation of rights.
