The underlings in this criminal enterprise have blended into Guyana’s political power assembly

Jun 30, 2013 Letters

Dear Editor,
David Casavis’ book documenting the mafia-like criminal connections between an American Embassy Official and Haleem Khan, exposes the development of a criminal enterprise that has grown to encompass virtually every aspect of our lives in Guyana. It did not disappear with the apprehension, prosecution and jailing of some of the principals in enterprise.
In fact, since the removal from the scene of these principals, their underlings have blended into the political power assembly in Guyana, and are now being employed in a variety of nefarious purposes. And as has now become apparent, while the Minister of Home Affairs engages in his “wolf wolf” lament about the potential for instability in the country, he has named one of these alleged underlings to a committee comprised of civilians responsible for reforming the Guyana Police Force. Talk about bare-faced hypocrisy and spitting in the eyes of the citizenry.
Given the fact that one of these alleged underlings has now been appointed by the Minister of Home Affairs to the civilian commission to reform GPF the question becomes, what kind of reformation does this Minister have in mind for the force, and what will that reformation entail for the citizens of Guyana?
Mr. Editor the press, the opposition, the international community, need to investigate these moves that do not augur well for stability in our nation in particular, and in the region in general. We can well recall the attempt by the former President Bharat Jagdeo to impose a former New York Commissioner in an oversight position over the Guyana Police Force.
We can recall that this man was subsequently indicted and jailed for a myriad of criminal acts in the United States of America. Over the past two decades, the PPP regime and its leaders have displayed a propensity to align themselves with some of the most criminally corrupted individuals, all the while accusing others of supporting criminality. They say show me your friends and I can tell who you are, and based on these associations, there should be no question about who is supporting, directly or indirectly, criminality in Guyana.
I call on the Minister of Home Affairs to inform the Guyanese public about the reason behind the revocation of his US Visa during that turbulent period, and we aint buying that Vietnam War protest nonsense. I further call on the opposition and all civic minded Guyanese to procure this book, to read it, and to draw an understanding of the hidden and nefarious machinations at work in Guyana. The book is available at http://www.amazon.com/The-Thomas-Carroll-Affair-ebook/dp/B00D8DYBWY/ref=tmm_kin_title_popover?ie=UTF8&qid=1372024584&sr=8-1-spell.
The late American Attorney at Law and Associate Justice on the US Supreme Court Louis D Brandeis advised that quote, “……The Government teaches the whole people by its example. When the Government becomes the Law Breaker it breeds contempt for the Law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy…..”, or words to that effect. We have already experienced this in the unlawful expeditions of a former Minister of Home Affairs, and a scourge of blood letting that is unfortunately still with us. For the sake of our country, the future of our children, this slide must end now.
