Pa­tri­ot­ic Front (PF) Po­lit­i­cal Leader Mick­ela Pan­day in­tends to file an of­fi­cial com­plaint with the Coun­cil for Re­spon­si­ble Po­lit­i­cal Be­hav­iour about “scare tac­tics” against her mem­bers al­leged­ly by two ma­jor po­lit­i­cal par­ties.

Pan­day con­firmed this yes­ter­day af­ter a press con­fer­ence at the Steel Work­ers Union of Trinidad and To­ba­go (SWUTT) head­quar­ters in Cal­i­for­nia where she of­fi­cial­ly an­nounced her 37 can­di­dates in the April 28 Gen­er­al Elec­tion. The par­ty would not be con­test­ing the Diego Mar­tin Cen­tral, Diego Mar­tin West, Port-of-Spain North/St Ann’s West and Point Fortin seats.

The par­ty was sched­uled to put for­ward can­di­dates for all 41 con­stituen­cies. But on Nom­i­na­tion Day last Fri­day, it was re­vealed that on­ly 37 can­di­dates had filed their nom­i­na­tion pa­pers.
