Chaguanas West MP Jack Warner has been spared yet another time by the UNC’s disciplinary committee.

However, fellow dissidents Tabaquite MP Ramesh Lawrence Maharaj and Mayaro MP Winston ’Gypsy’ Peters were not so fortunate.

The UNC Executive at its meeting at Rienzi Complex, Couva, decided last night that Maharaj and Peters would be sent to the party’s disciplinary committee as they failed to attend the meeting yesterday to explain their conduct and answer charges laid against them.

Maharaj, who is currently on vacation in the Cayman Islands told the Express last night, ’Let Mr Panday and the Executive continue to make a mess of things and when I return I will respond to them.’

The Executive had issued letters to Warner, Peters and Maharaj outlining a number of charges against them, which included bringing the party into disrepute and voting with the PNM in Parliament.

In response, the trio sent letters indicating that they could not answer the charges unless proper documents were supplied to them including the minutes of Executive meetings. They also threatened legal action as they argued that the Executive was unlawful and could not take such action against them.

Some 25 charges were slapped on Warner. In his letter to the executive he explained that he would be out of the country and stated dates that he would be available.

Panday said last night that because of Warner’s willingness to meet with the Executive he would be given the opportunity to be heard and then the decision would be made as to whether he would also be sent to the party’s disciplinary committee.

When asked if the Executive discussed whether UNC councilors Felisha Isahack and Narsingh Rambarran who voted for the ousting of Suruj Rambachan as Chaguanas mayor was discussed, Panday said, ’We’ll deal with the most important ones first’.

If found guilty by the party’s disciplinary committee, of which Rambachan and Chaguanas deputy mayor Orlando Nagessar are members, Maharaj and Peters can be suspended or expelled from the UNC.
