 NASSAU, Bahamas (AP) - The Bahamas immigration minister denied that his friendship with Anna Nicole Smith influenced his decision to grant her residency, and his political allies lent him their support Tuesday after photographs showed the pair on a bed.
The main opposition party has called for an investigation into the process that granted permanent residency to the former Playboy Playmate after The Tribune of Nassau published front page photos of Smith embracing Immigration Minister Shane Gibson in a bed, both fully clothed. Gibson had approved Smith's residency application.
But Cabinet members from Gibson's ruling Progressive Liberal Party expressed support for him as they entered a white-columned government building for a weekly meeting.
