Horatio says he did not compete in Suriname’s Teleg 10k

-Police Sports Office requests results from Suriname

Dennis Horatio of the Guyana Police Force (GPF) and an athlete of the Police Progressive Youth Club (PPYC) yesterday afternoon made it clear to Kaieteur Sport that he did not compete at the Teleg 10km Road Race in Suriname that was held on Tuesday.
He said his identity had to be mistaken because the last time he departed Guyana to compete at any international athletic meet was last July for the ALBA Games, which was held in Venezuela with the only local meet being the Athletic Association of Guyana (AAG) National Cross Country .
Horatio thought it best to clear the air since the Kaieteur Sport report that he placed second in the Suriname event has caused some amount of furor as it relates to him breaching police protocol and opting to leave Guyana without the necessary permission.
This newspaper had received a call from members of the Guyanese contingent that went to run at the event in Suriname Wednesday evening to disseminate results. Horatio’s name was given to us as the person, who placed second in the race from the team.
But according to Horatio, it was Kelvin Johnson who placed second and not him. The Sports Office of the Guyana Police Force has launched an investigation into the matter, requesting the official results from officials in Suriname.
