Big lie,
I personally know the Major as a serious capital diamond minner for the past nine years. 14 pieces of diamond is just a minute figure from the larger parcel i saw with him before this incident. The Mayor is a well to do personality and a God fearing man.
He is not making a baseless accusation, but exact picture of the incident.
