Former Attorney-General Anil Nandlall yesterday expressed concern at the leakage of confidential information to the press about persons who are being investigated by the Special Organised Crime Unit (SOCU) and the State Assets Recovery Unit (SARU).
“From what is being published in the press, it is manifestly clear that there is an unhindered, free and frequent flow of information from these agencies to certain sections of the press disclosing the personal, confidential financial and other information unearthed by the investigations of those who are the subject of investigations including bank accounts numbers and balances,” Nandlall, who was instrumental in the setting up of SOCU, told Stabroek News.
