With the APNU+AFC government facing a barrage of questions over how he came to be single-sourced in a pharmacy bond deal, curiosity surrounds businessman Lawrence ‘Larry’ Singh.
Stabroek News reached out to Singh on Friday at his Middle Street office but was told by his security personnel that he was not in the country. A previous attempt by Stabroek News to speak with Singh about the $12.5m bond deal resulted in the reporter being asked to leave the premises.
What is clear from a variety of sources is that Singh has had a longstanding relationship with the PNC, the predecessor of the PNCR which is the main component of A Partnership for National Unity (APNU). APNU is also the senior partner in the governing coalition.
