Forty-eight hours after announcing the setting up of an inquiry into allegations of political interference in a police investigation, the Prime Minister has still not turned his words into action, the Nationalist Party said in a statement today.
This procrastination is "scandalous" and could lead to tampering of evidence against the two politicians who are alleged to have intervened to stop the police from investigating a drug trafficking case.
This is a serious case, the PN said, as it is being alleged that two people who were caught trafficking drugs were freed without being taken to court and that their statement was changed after a meeting in which two government politicians took part.
This delay is protecting drug traffickers, the PN said. The Prime Minister is eager to set up an inquiry each time an opposition member is involved, but is dragging his feet on this occasion.
