Parapen: "I have a lot of respect for Lauthan, but sometimes I don't agree with his comments on drugs"

Parapen: "I have a lot of respect for Lauthan, but sometimes I don't relate to his statements on drug policy." The Junior Minister of Social Security and a member of Rezistans ek Alternativ was quite outspoken. While emphasizing that Sam Lauthan, the president of the National Agency for Drug Control (NADC), "is someone I have great respect for," Kugan Parapen added: "Sometimes, when I hear his comments on drug policy, I cannot relate."

The Junior Minister was speaking this Thursday at a citizens' forum organized by Rezistans ek Alternativ at the Port-Louis Municipal Council. "We have some concerns regarding the NADC because we are unsure of the direction it is taking," he also stated.
