PARAMARIBO, Suriname, CMC – The Trinidad-based regional political analyst, Derrick Ramsamooj, has been released from custody in Suriname even as the authorities continue to probe activities at the Surinamese Post Savings Bank. Ramsamooj, 59, who had been in custody since October 6, told the Caribbean Media Corporation that while he had been released from custody, he was not granted permission to leave the Dutch-speaking Caribbean Community (CARICOM) country. “They have my computers, phone, and passport,” he said, adding that his priority now was to ensure that he gets back to health.” Ramsamooj, a “diabetic”, had threatened to go on a hunger strike after claiming that the authorities have given no indication as to why he had been detained.
