PUP trip to Sarstoon Island cancelled

Posted: Saturday, May 21, 2016. 10:38 a.m. CST

By BBN Staff: Reports reaching Breaking Belize News are that the People’s United Party’s (PUP) trip, scheduled to have left this morning en route to the Sarstoon Island, was cancelled.

According to those reports, the cancellation was because of the medical condition of party leader, John Briceno’s father, who is said to be really ill at this time.

The trip, which would have gone against the 30 day ban set on the area by government, had garnered much attention as the Belizean public waited to see if it would share the same fate as Belize Territorial Volunteers’ last attempt to traverse to the island.

This story will be updated as more details emerge.
