Hours after his damning public claims that he was placed on an Interpol watch list, Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar is saying former prime minister Dr Keith Rowley owes the entire nation an apology, after the TT Police Service confirmed he was not neither on any watch list nor is wanted.

In a statement on July 21 at 5.20 pm, Persad-Bissessar said, "After nearly a decade marked by mismanagement and decline, followed by his quiet retreat into a life of luxurious retirement, Dr Rowley re-emerged to host a press conference only to level spurious, unfounded and inflammatory allegations."

She added that Rowley, in his press conference, suggested that the Prime Minister, the Attorney General and the independent TTPS conspired to have his name placed on Interpol’s watch list.
