Electricity to dozens of Timehri homes disconnected

Jul 31, 2012 News

More than 50 homes are without electricity in Hyde Park, Timehri, after Guyana Power and Light (GPL) employees, accompanied by police ranks, went into the area and disconnected several power lines yesterday afternoon.
According to George David, a resident of the area, persons have been occupying the government-owned lands for many years, and have never paid any electricity bills.
He explained that there were some rumours suggesting that they (the residents) would have to start paying the rates, but the residents were never given a formal notice.
The man is highly annoyed at this fact, stating that many businesses are being affected because of the haphazard disconnections.
“I thought GPL would’ve had a meeting or something with we, but there was nothing like that”.
The residents are calling on GPL and government authorities to have a discussion with them.
