Tell us who’s selling bad gas!

On Tuesday, the authorities ordered 17 service stations across the island closed amidst a probe that has so far identified 26 stations that were selling the bad fuel. But Energy Minister Phillip Paulwell noted at a hastily called press briefing, that Government’s hands were tie in naming the service stations as the source of the fuel contamination was not identified.
