For the latest news across Belize, visit: http://edition.channel5belize.com/ The Arthur Saldivar/P.U.P. saga continued today with a meeting between the political aspirant and the party’s national executive. Saldivar, who is desperately fighting to contest the P.U.P. Belmopan’s convention this Sunday, was invited to present himself before the national executive. The meeting was to hear a presentation from him on why he should be allowed to be part of the convention. This is after he was interviewed by members of the P.U.P.’s Vetting Committee earlier this month which determined that Saldivar was not qualified to run in the standard bearer convention. Since that meeting, Saldivar has launched a second lawsuit against the party he wants to represent. He is asking for an injunction to Sunday’s convention and a declaration since he believes that the committee demonstrated bias in reviewing his application. That hearing is scheduled for Friday, but as Chairman Henry Charles Usher says, the convention is set to be held on Sunday. Usher explains why the Party’s National Executive decided to hear Saldivar’s plea.
