Former Leader of the United Workers Party, Earl Williams, has shut down claims by Hotel Developer Sam Raphael as lies. In an official statement issued this week, Raphael, following calls to provide evidence to substantiate his claims that the Opposition UWP was involved in the sale of diplomatic passports, said while there was no MoU, there are financial records to prove funds were delivered. But speaking on Q95's Hotseat Thursday, Williams reiterated the point of the current Opposition Leader that it is ludicrous to think that an Opposition Party can engage in the sale of diplomatic passports. He stated further that there is no nexus between the monies received by Raphael and the sale of diplomatic passports. Williams also says Raphael may have now exposed himself as a money launderer, with this so-called evidence. Meanwhile, Williams has described Hotel Developer, Sam Raphael, as a political puppet being used by the Dominica Labour Party. He suggests that Raphael is only being used by the DLP Government. He has advised Raphael to consider obtaining another legal advisor following his statements that he was advised to seal his documents and take it to the Attorney General. He says these 'documents' openly incriminates Raphael with the crime of money laundering. "That is the worst advise any lawyer can give to a client" he said.
