Hanoman: No evidence of extradition requests beyond Mohameds

Counsel for the requesting state, Glenn Hanoman, said today that no evidence has been presented in court regarding extradition requests involving persons other than Azruddin and Nazar Mohamed.
In a statement, he noted that there was no reference to “massive drug shipments,” narcotics offences, or any drug-related matters in response to a Facebook post containing false claims about the ongoing court proceedings.
The post, circulated by a page associated with Hana Mohamed, purported to report on testimony by Sharon Roopchand-Edwards, Permanent Secretary at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Hanoman described it as “entirely false, misleading, and without factual foundation,” clarifying that the witness only noted the receipt, in November, of documents relating to a US request, without linking them to any offences or individuals beyond those already before the court.
He added that the testimony was routine, with no adjournment or disruption of proceedings, and dismissed claims of a “bombshell revelation” or a “visibly shocked” courtroom as fabrications. Hanoman warned that false reports of judicial proceedings risk undermining public confidence in the justice system.
