Gda: Investigate the Mitchell allegations says the private sector

The Grenada Chamber of Industry and Commerce (GCIC) has written to Dr. Mitchell asking him to do the right thing by facilitating "an independent enquiry" as well as an "impartial investigation" into the serious charges levelled against him.

The allegation which the Prime Minister has vehemently denied was first reported by the Miami-based Offshore Alert in May that German fraudster Eric Resteiner had given Dr. Mitchell US$500, 000 in Switzerland in June 2000 for a diplomatic appointment.

In a letter dated June 5, the private sector body told the Grenada Prime Minister that "there are a number of issues requiring further clarification in order for the entire matter to be put to rest".
