Female deportee nabbed with missing passports

Jul 16, 2008 News

A prominent city businesswoman and another man are in police custody following the discovery of a number of brand new Guyana passports that were among the set stolen from the Central Immigration and Passport Office almost two years ago.
The couple was nabbed when the police stopped the vehicle over a traffic violation in the vicinity of the Demerara Harbour Bridge.
A search of the vehicle revealed several items among which were the brand new passports, which bore the serial numbers from among those that were stolen.
The businesswoman and her accomplice were questioned and could not give investigators a proper explanation of how they came to be in possession of the stolen passports.
It is believed that the businesswoman, who was previously jailed in the United States of America for trafficking in cocaine, is an integral member of a local backtracking ring.
Kaieteur News understands that she spent last night at the East La Penitence Police Station while her accomplice was housed at the Brickdam lock-ups.
Investigations are continuing.
