United States officials yesterday formally requested the extradition of FIFA corruption accused Jack Warner.

Attorney General Garvin Nicholas made the announcement at a news conference, and indicated he would be examining the documentation and considering the evidence to decide whether the matter would proceed.

“It is important to decide whether there is a case to be answered, and if there is a case to be answered, then the authority to proceed will be granted; and if, in the attorney general’s discretion, there is not a case or sufficient evidence to proceed, then that is the discretion that will be exercised,” he said.

However, Nicholas declined to give a time frame for making a decision.

    Hello and good morning my people. Look Trinidad don’t send your citizens to America because they already convict him. Just tell them if they have any evidence against Mr Warner come and try him in Trinidad. When last you heard America send any of their citizen to any country to be tried for alleged crime.

    In all this saga with FIFA, and even what is currently happening with the DFA, I haven’t heard a word from Mr. Patrick John…….so so strange. It’s like he is completely mute, I know Mr Warner and Mr John were very close friends. Is this a case that when we are experiencing difficult times our friends are few or is it something else?

    I have also heard of this FIFA saga through the Toronto/Canadian local news. I would not want to be in any of their shoes.
    If they received and benefited from funds as it is stated, then they will have to pay for it. People must keep in mind, if they involve themselves in shady deals, sooner or later they will be caught. These matters do not remain hidden forever. Honesty is always the best policy. It wins in the end.
    He must be a very worried man. If it could take five years for his extradition, I wonder if he will not be ill or dead by that time? Know that anxiety and stress could cause health problems and kill people. Time will tell.

    I hope the USA will spread its tentacles to include the extradition of inept, CORRUPT, despotic, insultive, and incompetent political leaders.

      Be certain what some of you accuse the PM of that you are correct for you will have to answer to God for defaming his character and judging him. In fact, you should not even mention it and consistently so on this Website.
      Have you heard of and/or are following the US News and political ones?
      Some leaders need to be arrested for infringing on the religious rights of its nationals.
      Follow this News about Obama and he wanting all employers, no exception Christian ones including Jewish and also Muslims to incorporate in their insurance policies, contraceptives and sterilization. There are Court cases and appeals. There is more to this.
      If, as expected, it is muzzled on the US secular news, access http://www.ewtn.com and other EWTN Global Catholic Radio Stations throughout the US. I hear everything which is too much to mention here.
      I can tell you when such people die they will have much to answer to God for.
