The alleged transfers occurred between November 27, 2025 and December 5, 2025.

According to GRA, the vehicles were in breach of both regulations associated with the transfer of motor vehicles and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) regulations.

According to GRA, “A perusal of the authority’s records reveal that the identical employees were responsible for the off premises examination of the vehicles, lodgement, approval of the transfer documents, and the dispatch and receipt of payment to effect the said transfers, with many of the transferees residing at similar addresses in Republic Park and Atlantic Gardens, and Hill Top, Timehri, East Bank Demerara.”

So far, investigations have revealed 11 such transfers, including luxury vehicles.

The institution explained that all employees involved in such illegal transfer will be arrested and prosecuted before the courts. “Investigations are ongoing, and the authority’s international partners have been apprised,” GRA stated.”

Meanwhile, Mohamed in an interview with Kaieteur News maintained his innocence stating that all regulations were followed. He said, “I never knew it was a crime to sell vehicles. I sold those vehicles at an agreement of sales, we went through the right process, we paid for the transfer of the vehicles, for each and every vehicle we paid.”

The businessman further stated that he’s surprised that his transfers are being investigated. “I don’t know what they are coming for. All I have to say is that I don’t know if I want to sell a vehicle of mine is it a crime. I went through the right process, I submitted the agreement of sales, we submitted the relevant documents. The staff of GRA checked off each vehicle to ensure that the vehicles, the registration that they are intact, and that they are not stolen vehicles, and all regulations were followed,” he said.

The businessman further added, “This is just political prosecution, it’s like I’m a prisoner in my own country.”

Mohamed clarified too that none of his luxury vehicles were sold, a claim made by the tax authority body. “The Lamborghini is still in my possession,” he said.
