(Trinidad Express) United National Congress (UNC) campaign and advertising manager Ernie Ross has denied trying to influence former minister of national security Gary Griffith to change his story in the ongoing David West versus Anand Ramlogan saga.
Speaking to the Express on Monday, Ross said it was not his place to influence Griffith’s decision to be a witness in West’s case, in which he (West) alleges that ex-attorney general Ramlogan had asked him to withdraw his statement in the defamation case against Opposition Leader Dr Keith Rowley in exchange for the post of Police Complaints Autho-rity (PCA) director.
“You ask me if I had spoken to Mr Griffith and convince him to change his story…absolutely not, that is not my role,” Ross said emphatically.
