These charges are more political than criminal. He may have sold the plots below market value causing the state to lose some money. How much money the state loss based on what was the market value at the point of sale? How does the gov't. determine the market value of land that is sold to the public?

He determined the value by what his cronies were willing to pay.

the offences alleged to have occurred between the period of September 2010 to March 2015, involve housing allocations to six Cabinet members—former president Bharrat Jagdeo, Cabinet Secretary Dr Roger Luncheon and Ministers Priya Manickchand, Dr Jennifer Westford, Robert Persaud and Clement Rohee—along with other persons with connections to the then PPP/C government.
