A High Court is expected to decide today what legal action could be handed down to have former special advisor to the Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation (TTFF), Austin "Jack" Warner provide "all relevant documents" regarding all the finances relating to the country's participation in the 2006 World Cup.
An article in a Trinidad newspaper states that in an 11-page ruling earlier this year, Justice Devindra Rampersad said that the TTFF should direct Warner in writing – and copied to the attorneys for the players – "to file an account of all monies received by him" as the TTFF's agent "in relation to all income, donations, gifts, grants or benefits whatsoever and all expenditure therefrom arising out of the World Cup 2006".
When the matter came up in court on Tuesday, Warner was not present and no documents were handed to the court.
Mr. Warner reportedly sent a letter stating that he has given the Federation letters indicating that he has no information for them, he has given them back everything that he had concerning football which is in direct contradiction to an affidavit stating that Mr. Warner is the only one with all the information concerning the World Cup 2006 accounts.
