Grenada Suspends Passport Program

Grenada has suspended its program of allowing foreigners to buy passports, saying the practice was too risky after the terrorist attacks in the United States.

Introduced three years ago, the economic citizenship program sold passports for about $39,000.

``Grenadian passports can end up in the wrong hands and be used for purposes other than for that which they were intended,'' Grenada Finance Minister Anthony Boatswain said Friday.
