FORMER FIFA vice president Jack Warner's attorney has called on the state to account for what he says are serious gaps and inconsistencies in the disclosure of legal fees paid in the extradition proceedings against the former football jefe which he said are discrepancies amounting to millions of dollars in public funds.

In a letter to the Chief state Solicitor on August 8, attorney Richard Jaggasar said the Attorney General’s Office disclosed payment records for only seven names, omitting information for nine attorneys and the overseas firm. This amounted to $6.9 million.

However, Jaggasar asserts that former attorney general Faris Al-Rawi told a press conference on August 6 that several of the omitted attorneys – including Jagdeo Singh, Gerald Ramdeen, Wayne Sturge, Israel Khan, SC, and Allan Newman, KC – were in fact retained and paid by the state.
