But to the careful observers, it shows the selectivity of Liberia’s law enforcement, specifically the Financial Intelligence Unit, when there is an underlying agenda. But the hypocrisy of the actions of McGill and his henchmen at the Financial Intelligence Unit could be seen and was put on display when Cassell Kuoh was also in similar straits like Sheikh Bassirou Kante. Were the Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) and former Minister McGill not in the know of the doings of the late Dr. Daniel E. Cassell and former LFA Vice President Cassell Kuoh? This goes to show that the Financial Intelligence Unit is not independent as it appears to be and cannot be trusted to crack down on crimes of fraud etc. The Financial Intelligence Unit is now a tool being used by politicians and it’s far from what the framers intended it to be when it was passed into law to become an independent anti-corruption institution.
