Financial discrepancies at Brickdam Station Registry

Jan 19, 2013 News

– Force solicits information from public to aid in probe  

 

Following the disclosure of financial irregularities at the Brickdam Police Station Registry, for which one female rank has been placed under open arrest, the Guyana Police Force has issued a statement soliciting help from licensed firearm holders who made purchases during August and last December.
A statement issued yesterday informed that the records of firearm licences sold during the aforementioned period have not been located. Consequently, individuals and representatives of companies, who have purchased their firearm licences at Brickdam Station during that period, are asked to report to the Police Office of Professional Responsibility at Police Headquarters, Eve Leary, with their licences.
This information, the statement added, is needed to aid the probe that is being carried out by the Audit and Inspection Unit of the Police Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) in conjunction with the Criminal Investigation Department (CID).
A female Lance Corporal has been suspected to be involved in the disappearance of a quantity of cash from the Registry. The money represents the proceeds from the sale of firearm licences.
Kaieteur News understands that the female rank was previously transferred from the Police Finance Office where she and others were implicated in another massive fraud, for which no one has been prosecuted.
In fact, the rank was recently promoted at the last police promotions announced on January 1.
