Prominent Jamaican politician indicted by US Grand Jury? Extradition request soon?

The Caricom News Network understands that a prominent Jamaican politician has been indicted by the United States authorities, possibly in connection with the ongoing criminal matter involving reputed drug lord Christopher ‘Dudus’ Coke, who is awaiting sentencing in a United States court.

According to Professor Rowe, this

Florida based attorney-at-law, Professor David Rowe, told host of the Evening Edition's Lambert Brown on 93FM yesterday, that he has been reliably informed that an indictment has already been handed down and efforts are now been made by US officials to make the necessary arrangements to extradite the person involved.

"bomb-shell" is expected to hit the Jamaican political landscape within the next ten days and is expected to have a devastating effect on the affected political party.

A report in today's edition of the Jamaica Observer news paper, seemed to comfirm Professor Rowe's shocking revelations to Lambert Brown by indicating that " extradition requests from the American Government for five Jamaicans, among them three prominent faces, are expected to be delivered to local authorities tod

He said news of the indictment has already been leaked to sections of the US media as well as highly placed political operatives in the United States.

ay."

Quoting a a highly placed US Government official who spoke on condition of anonymity, "two of the wanted men are politicians, one is a veteran entertainer, while the others both conduct regular business at Kingston’s Port Bustamante."

The Observer report said "the extradition requests are related to the ongoing criminal matter involving reputed drug lord Christopher ‘Dudus’ Coke, who is awaiting sentencing in a United States court, following his admission of guilt in relation to racketeering in the US and conspiracy to commit assault in aid of racketeering."

According to the US Government official, the politicians named in the extradition warrants are believed to have assisted Coke in the importation of various items from the United States, some of which may not have been brought in legally.

The Observer was told that US authorities got critical information on certain persons in Jamaica from Coke, although his legal team has maintained consistently that the former fugitive did not squeal.
