(Trinidad Express) Health Minister Dr Fuad Khan decided on Monday night to give up his private medical practice, hours after he was given an ultimatum by Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar to choose between it and his ministerial position.
Speaking earlier in the day with reporters in South Trinidad, Persad-Bissessar said she had told Khan, a urologist, that not only was such behaviour inappropriate, but “it was untenable”.
In a release last night, Khan, the MP for San Juan/Barataria, stated his decision to cease his private medical practice.
