Government on Thursday revealed that it is receiving foreign assistance to track down and capture wanted man Rondell `Fineman’ Rawlins but would say nothing else about it publicly.
President Bharrat Jagdeo made the disclosure at a press conference at the Office of the President but was tightlipped on the nature of the assistance and its origin.
He told the media that “We have been receiving foreign help that we cannot speak about in the public”, he said adding that there are a few other cases where help was requested and none was received. He made specific reference to the Lindo Creek forensic assistance that was needed. That request had been made to the US but was turned down. Help was later received from the Caribbean.
“Yes, we have received foreign help and I don’t wish to speak about what the nature of that help is at this point in time. But it (the search for `Fineman’) still remains a priority. As you know there is a huge reward out on this criminal’s head”, he stressed.
Rawlins who is said to be the leader of the notorious Buxton gang has been in the news for several years now with his name being linked to several high profile killings including those of former Minister of Agriculture, Satyadeow Sawh, his security guard and siblings and the Lusignan, Bartica and Lindo Creek massacres. The latter three attacks resulted in 31 deaths.
it’s about time, since the gpf and the joint services can’t get him then maybe this would.
Well, well. I’m really holding my breath this time
Getting ‘ Fineman’ is only part of the problem, the larger issue of reforms and change ; Proffessionalising the Police and Security Services, constituting The Procurement Commission, Passing the Freedom of Information Bill, Broadcasting legislation, incentivise micro, medium and large businesses etc; are essential in developing a harmonious, progressive and democratic society.
Oh plaaalease, foreign help my foot. If the local GDF and GPF can’t find Fineman in our own jungle- or whereever he is- should we really expect foreigners to capture him? I won’t hold my breath on this one, for fear of turning blue and keeling over.
Fineman is a figment of this regime’s imagination!
Why all the smoke an mirrors at Christmas falls?
What a bunch of crock!!!
This regime just goes from days to day without any plan of action!
Folks…give the Presee some credit.
At least he came out with information on the actions
underway.
Really questonable why the US would decline to
give the help requested. They know all the ins and
outs in the Guyana society, so it should have been
a simple matter to give he requested help.
Would you give help to someone who cusses you out??
I think not!!!!
Blackwater Mercenaries eh…
Jagdeo is taking a page from the book of Bush…
Let me guess NOTAR Choppers equipped with FLIR to seek in the night and forward rangers to search and destroy?
it is time the Guyanese people say Thank you to the father above, that things did”nt get out of hand with the Fine man and his gang.
