Earlier we told you about an article in the Salt Lake Tribune that named John Saldivar as the minister who was receiving bribes from Lev Dermen. Saldivar has responded via a press release in which he maintains innocence. He stated that the article is untrue and leading without basis. It quoted, “The article suggests that Jacob Kingston will testify that Lev Dermen bribed me but does not say in exchange for what. No one knows what Jacob Kingston will say and to anticipate his testimony now is malicious and mischievous.” End quote. He continued by stating that there will be no evidence that will implicate him in anyway. He ended the release by calling out, quote, “PUP media houses” in Belize that are trying to smear his name without evidence.
