Son of former GRA Boss fined on dangerous driving charge

Jan 23, 2016 Court Stories, Features / Columnists, News

The 19-year-old son of former Guyana Revenue Authority (GRA) Commissioner General, Khurshid Sattaur, was on Wednesday ordered to pay a $25,000 fine after he pleaded guilty to a dangerous driving charge in a city court.
Fiyad Sattaur of 136 Ogle, East Bank Demerara admitted that on January 17, he drove a motorcar without care and attention.
The charge was read to him by Magistrate Renita Singh when the teenager appeared in the Georgetown Magistrates’ Courts.
The prosecution contended that on the day in question, Sattaur was driving the car along Sandy Babb Street, Kitty in a reckless manner. He was later approached by a police rank and told of the offence.
Police in a statement had said that Fiyad Sattaur was observed by a Traffic Police Sergeant in her private motorcar, overtaking a line of vehicles waiting at the traffic light on Sandy Babb Street, Kitty.
The statement said that the Sergeant made a note of the young man’s vehicle number PRR 4423, intent on following up with prosecution. However, she caught up with the vehicle at the intersection of Lamaha and Albert Streets, where she drove up alongside the driver and told him of the offence committed, but Sattaur drove off.
Fiyad Sattaur was once again caught at Lamaha and East Street, by the traffic cop, who came out of her vehicle and told him of the offence committed. He was instructed to go to Traffic Headquarters, Eve Leary and he complied, according to the statement.
