Tevaughn Harriet Denounces Defamatory Allegations by UPP

Tevaughn Harriet Denounces Defamatory Allegations Amid UPP Campaign

St. John’s, Antigua – Former United Progressive Party (UPP) caretaker Tevaughn Harriet has issued a statement rejecting claims made against him during the party’s campaign. Harriet described the allegations as false and damaging to his reputation.

According to the statement, Harriet was accused of being involved in fraudulent activities – allegations he firmly denies. He stated that he has never been arrested, detained, or charged in connection with any fraudulent activity, calling the claims baseless and misleading.

Harriet criticised the impact of these statements, noting the harm caused to his personal and professional reputation. He urged members of the UPP to cease making defamatory remarks, warning that failure to retract and correct these allegations could lead to legal action.

The former caretaker attributed his removal from the St. Peter constituency to his support for Richard Lewis as Party Leader during the UPP convention. Despite this, Harriet said he remains committed to serving the people of St. Peter and contributing to their development.

Harriet also addressed his previous silence on internal party issues, explaining that he sought to avoid further division within the UPP. However, he stated that the ongoing attacks on his character could not go unanswered and promised to respond fully in the near future.

In closing, Harriet expressed gratitude to his supporters, particularly those who have defended him during what he described as challenging times.

The UPP has not yet responded to Harriet’s claims.
