It was alleged by Dr. Fontaine on CAKAFETE and the Dominican.net that a known terrorist was the holder of a Dominican passport which caused alarm on the island.
Legal Practitioners for the prime minister wrote to the Dr. Fontaine requesting that he apologize publicly and pay a sum of $250, 000.00 to him failing which a lawsuit would be filed against him.
Since no public apology was made nor any response to the letter a lawsuit has been filed at the High Court of Justice in Roseau.
The lawsuit claims that these allegations and statements relating to Dominica’s Economic Citizenship Program and alleged sale of passports received widespread publication via the internet and radio .

The Economic Citizenship Programme Should NOT and hopefully WILL NOT be stopped.
It serves the Dominica economy/treasury well.
We have the OK from all major Democratic Governments to keep it going. (show otherwise)
I’ll be in court to hear and see Thomson (and his hoard of ‘patriots’?) finally give us “poor and clueless” Dominicans the evidence that PM Skerrit (MGBH), sold a passport to the Terrorist Dawood Ibrahim and enriched himself in the process.
. . . You all’s word will no longer be ‘the word of God’
Ps: .MGBH . . . . . May God Bless Him (or Her . . . for any PM)
Thompson needs attention …….
I cannot wait to see Thompson’s evidence. I hope he doesn’t embarrass himself talking about circumstantial evidence in court. I hope he doesn’t make a fool of himself with that PhD.
