WILLEMSTAD - Eldon "Peppie" Sulvaran submitted 93 investigation requests during George Jamaloodin's pre-trial hearing.

The former minister of finance for the MFK party is on appeal for being the intellectual author of the murder of the former Member of Parliament Helmin Wiels. Sulvaran plans to have more than 100 witnesses on trial on October 29, which is the date set for the case.

Whether all witnesses should appear will be determined by the judge on July 9. If all those witnesses have to be heard in court, the lawsuit will take at least a week later this year.
