Defeated candidate for United National Congress political leader Basdeo Panday claimed sabotage last night after boxes allegedly containing thousands of party membership cards were discovered hidden at the Rienzi Complex, Couva, headquarters.
Panday said he knew the saboteur behind the plan-a woman who once worked for him but who had defected to his political enemy, Kamla Persad-Bissessar.
The membership cards were dated between 2005 and 2009.
Panday was trounced by contender Persad-Bissessar for the post of UNC political leader on Sunday.
Asked whether the discovery meant that the election result was bogus because voters were denied, Panday said, ’Look around you (pointing to the cards strewn across the floor), and make up your own mind.’
Panday said he would leave it to others to decide whether there would be a legal challenge to the election result based on what was found.
Panday said he would report what he had found to the party’s general secretary, Fazal Karim.
’I have the evidence; I hope he can come and see it,’ Panday said.
However, Kemchan Ramdath, chairman of the party’s election committee said last night a party membership card was not required at the polling station.
All that was needed was a form of identification and for one’s name to be on the list of electors.
Panday, in his capacity of Opposition Leader, called a caucus meeting of members of parliament at Rienzi Complex yesterday. He said the caucus was to prepare for Friday’s sitting of Parliament and all were invited. The meeting lasted an hour and a half.
Attending the caucus were Panday loyalists, Dr Tim Gopeesingh, Chandresh Sharma, Mickela Panday, Subhas Panday, Dr Roodal Moonilal and Vasant Bharath.
Missing were Nizam Baksh and Dr Hamza Rafeeq. Gopeesingh said ’people paid money expecting their membership card which were kept away’, and the blame must be on ’the person responsible for ensuring the names were on the voters’ list’.
Panday said ,’It is obvious that the party was being sabotaged for quite some time. That’s clear; the physical evidence is there for you to see,’ he said.
He said the employee responsible for ensuring the approved membership cards were delivered to the applicants submitted a sick-leave certificate two weeks prior to the internal elections.
’And she was then seen in the camp of the other side campaigning,’ he said.
Panday said the new membership cards would have had a significant impact on the results of last Sunday’s internal elections.
Bharath said the boxes were found in a stock room at Rienzi Complex.
’We started finding them this afternoon and we just got another box. We got a tip-off. We are going to search the compound thoroughly, and I ensure that if there are any more cards, we will dig them out,’ he said.
Bharath also believes the cards would have affected the results of the elections.
’These are thousands of cards. I don’t know how they would have voted, but certainly, someone thought they would have voted for Mr Panday and maybe that’s the reason they were not sent out,’ he said.
Bharath believes the cards were deliberately withheld.
’Why were these thousands of people denied their membership cards and not been able to vote? This is not an exercise that has been taking place in the last week, this is an exercise that has been ongoing for over a couple of years... it was obviously withheld because someone thought they were Mr Panday’s supporters,’ he said.
’The membership cards belonged to people who had applied to become members of the party since 2006 and should have been allowed to vote in last Sunday’s elections. That was why we had so many problems on election day. These people were denied their legitimate right to vote,’ he said.
Panday said he would not be attending today’s 2 p.m. handing-over ceremony of newly elected Chairman Jack Warner and Political Leader Persad-Bissessar because he knew nothing about it. He said the new executive had the power to change the address of the UNC’s headquarters because Rienzi Complex was rented.
The Express contacted several of the people whose names were on the newly ’discovered’ cards.
Anita Boodoo, 60, of Cedros applied for membership a year ago, and despite the card, voted Sunday because her name was on the list of eligible voters. She did not vote for Panday.
Of the Chattergoon brothers of Cedros whose membership cards were found, one died four years ago, a second did not want to vote, and the third, a Persad-Bissessar supporter, chose church, instead, on Sunday, the Express was told last night.
Vishal Botha expressed surprise last night that his name was on one of the membership cards. He said he got his ballot card in the mail and voted for his candidate of choice.

St Augustine MP Vasant Bharath said yesterday he has confidence in Basdeo Panday to continue serving as opposition leader.
’I don’t see why there’s any great rush...Mr Panday has not lost my confidence as far as the job is concerned,’ Bharath told the Express in a telephone interview yesterday.
Given Siparia MP Kamla Persad-Bissessar’s resounding success at the United National Congress’ internal elections on Sunday, placing her as the party’s new political leader, some of her Parliamentary colleagues such as Jack Warner, Winston ’Gypsy’ Peters, Nizam Baksh and Harry Partap have expressed support for her to replace Panday as Opposition Leader.
However, she needs the majority of support, therefore, seven MPs must agree to strip Panday of the Opposition Leader position he currently holds.
’I won’t hold anything out at this point in time...as far as I’m concerned, my support is for Mr Panday,’’ said Bharath.
Bharath said he was surprised by Persad-Bissessar’s landslide victory and noted the majority of voters voted for her slate as opposed for individual candidates.
He said he is willing to work with Persad-Bissessar in the best interest of the party.
Bharath was defeated by Warner for the chairmanship of the party, and statistics revealed Warner was able to woo more voters in Bharath’s own constituency.
Bharath said this was not because of his lack of work as he is a full-time MP.
Opposition Chief Whip Dr Hamza Rafeeq said the matter, if it arose, would be discussed at a caucus level and then a decision would be taken. He said Persad-Bissessar is the new political leader and he would work with her.
Opposition MP Subhas Panday as well as Dr Tim Gopeesingh also expressed similar sentiments, saying the matter when it surfaces would be discussed and then he would make a decision. [b]They all expressed confidence in Panday’s performance thus far as Opposition Leader. [/b]
Newly installed deputy leader Roodal Moonilal, the only member of the Panday slate to be voted into office, also expressed the same view.
Both Persad-Bissessar and Panday say they have left it in the hands of the Opposition parliamentarians to determine whether Panday goes or stays as head of the Opposition benches.
New United National Congress (UNC) political leader Kamla Persad-Bissessar will discuss finding the party’s own headquarters when she meets with her executive today, at Rienzi Complex, Couva, which has been the base of its operations for 20 years.
Panday’s claims came three hours after the chairman of the party’s elections committee Kemchan Ramdath declared the results official, with Persad-Bissesar being declared the winner by a margin of 13,493 votes to Panday’s 1,359 votes.
