PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad, CMC – Prime Minister Kamla Persad Bissessar says she will not be rushed into making any public statement on international reports that her National Security Minister Austin “Jack” Warner may be implicated in a Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) probe involving soccer’s global governing body. “I will not rely on published reports in the media, but will again seek to get official corroboration of the information now in the public domain before making any determination or pronouncement,” Persad Bissessar said in a statement late Wednesday. Opposition Leader Dr. Keith Rowley, has in the past consistently called on Prime Minister Persad Bissessar to dismiss Warner from the Cabinet over the International Football Federation (FIFA) scandal. He has so far made no comment on the latest disclosure.
