Alright, alright, alright. Leh me understand this properly.
A man who is sanctioned by the United States Treasury. A man who is indicted by a federal grand jury in Miami on 11 counts. A man whose family is accused of evading US$50 million in gold export taxes. A man who is literally facing extradition proceedings in Georgetown court right now.
And when SOCU searches his premises based on credible intelligence… that is political victimisation?
