Dear Editor,
Azruddin Mohamed was sanctioned by the United States a year ago for not paying taxes to the Guyana government. The PPP administration proceeded to sanction Azruddin, his father, Nazar Mohamed, and their several businesses. They do no businesses and have not been receiving any income. Azruddin is seeking political office, perhaps ostensibly to address his legal issues.
Separately, Azruddin was arrested on a different (economic or political) matter a week ago related to undervaluing of a lamborgini he imported in order to avoid paying high duties. He was charged and arrested.
Azruddin claimed that his non-payment of taxes as well as avoidance of required duties were facilitated by the PPP administration (mentioned the President specifically). Custom officers conspired and facilitated the relatively low duties on the lamborgini. In light of the fact that Azruddin was sanctioned by the USA and by the Guyana government for illegal or improper financial activities facilitated by the PPP administration, custom agents, and the President, shouldnt the President and the members of the government (the cabinet), and custom agents also be sanctioned by the USA and the Guyana government for their involvement and conspiracy in this matter? And shouldnt the President and custom agents also face criminal charges for facilitating or engaging in a conspiracy to defraud the government of duties?
Yours truly,
Nigel Pilgrim
