Ex VI Premier Hon Andrew A. Fahie is out on bail!

MIAMI, Florida, USA- Ousted Premier of the [British] Virgin Islands Honourable Andrew A. Fahie (R1) has secured his pre-trial liberty and is now out of the Miami Detention Centre where he has been held since his arrest at a Miami Airport on April 28, 2022.

Hon Fahie, who remains the elected representative of the First District, was held by officials of the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) on allegations of money laundering and conspiracy to import cocaine into the United States.

Despite US prosecutors seeking to keep Hon Fahie imprisoned, a judge offered him bail in the sum of $1,000,000 with a Nebbia condition for half of the funds and a disclosure of the source of funding.

The Nebbia satisfaction consisted of the Affidavit of Albion Hodge aka 'Bobby' in support of the evidence of the source of funds used to pay for the premium for the corporate surety bond in place for Mr Fahie.

The former Premier was released moments ago, our sources in Miami have confirmed.

He will; however, not be allowed to leave his Miami residence, as part of his bail conditions.

Hon Fahie’s trial is set for July 18, 2022.

More details to follow.

      It is APPALLING the number of IGNORANT people fighting for this man to be free AFTER all the details of the Affidavit that stated him being on video and voice recording confirming his drug and money laundering involvement PLUS BEING INVOLVED WITH WITCHCRAFT IN THIS TERRITORY.

      The fish stinks from the head down and those supporting this proves what type of people they are …disgraceful!

      You don’t see the same people fighting for those who behind bars up Balsum Ghut.

      As for those who so quick to call others haters for standing up for justice, that hater term is overused so for goodness sake give it a rest!

      Try go and study the Holy Bible.

      The fact that Andrew pleaded Not Guilty shows he DOES NOT HAVE A REPENTANT HEART. THE AFFIDAVIT HAS EVIDENCE OF HIS CRIMINAL INVOLVEMENT.

      He does not fear God’s wrath.

      Iniquity means “to bend, twist, distort” so iniquities are a bending, twisting, or distorting of the law or God's Word to different degrees to suit one’s selfish, fleshy, worldly desires and is worthy of punishment.

      Jeremiah 14:10

      Thus says the Lord to this people, “Even so they have loved to wander; they have not kept their feet in check. Therefore the Lord does not accept them; now He will remember their iniquity and call their sins to account.”

    The God of the mountain is still God in the valley, the God of the day is still God in the night. He is an ontime God yes he is. If he was like man then that would be a real tragedy. Don't play with honest prayers it moves MOUNTAIN, it break chains, it mends broken pieces and the list goes on. He is an onetime God. You don't have to agree but I can tell you from experience faith in God IS THE WAY TO GO. Break those chains in the name of Jesus push back the darkness in the name of Jesus. Don't mess with our liberated freedom fighter the man Christ Jesus he works in his own timing. If we force our way we would mess up but if we let him fight for us his answer is always on time. The only problem with us is sometimes the answer is not what we wanted but he is God.THANK God he used Bobby in his own timing. Mankind always seems to know best by pulling down each other but God knows the right way to pull us up when our backs are against the wall. GOD GOT ANDREW'S BACK PACK. LET ME SAY IT AGAIN. GOD almighty got ANDREW'S back pack. Trust God's process he has the final say on this matter. Does not matter what we say and do. The key that unlock the door is prayer.

      Stop putting God’s name in thing when things seem to go how you want it.

      God’s hand is NOT in everything and many people’s decisions have nothing to do with God.

      Imagine if murderers were out on bail, would you say God is an on time God then too??!!!!

      People so quick to say God say this and God say that making a mockery of His Holy Name and Word. Vain, conceited, self-serving people.

      The Lord Jesus said: “Not every one that said to Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that does the will of My Father which is in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name? and in Your name have cast out devils? and in Your name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess to them, I never knew you: depart from Me, you that work iniquity” (Mat 7:21–23).

    Innocent until proven guilty is the law but the Feds are really good at proving you guilty if you don't take a plea. They are really good at making you pay for not taking the plea as well.

You all are saying let him go but guess what when he do get back here he has the law to face he committed crimes here as well it all started here so keep praying for the wrong reasons and he is going to call names because it’s the only way that he will get some sort of a deal .

    Come on people; be anxious for nothing. In this sinful world of uncertainties and disappointments things happen to people all the time. John Doe’s plight may not necessarily become yours or a member of your family but things have a way of happening when we least expect, and in some instances they catch us unaware without any knowledge of what is going on. I am in no way condoning wrong but I am simply saying it is not wise to rejoice over someone else downfall. The old adage says today for me and tomorrow for you and a very familiar one advises that when your neighbor house is on fire you must throw water on yours. Just some food for thought before we hastily condemn.

    The governor knows and the Commissioner of police must know that the DEA was operating in the territory.
    This was well prepare plan to bring down FAHIE by the UK.
    We were asking for the COI report to be released and we were told it will come in June. As soon as they accomplish the task of arresting FAHIE they release the report and then the governor want us to believe he knew nothing.
