…. there r many such “buisness men” at “lot 12″ ,,,,, there r even prisoners ,, who r buisness men in the prisons ,,
And we all wonder how guns and drugs get into the prisons! what a shame when the prison officer is found with ganga!
Make him an inmate, he is already where he should be, no transportation costs for the govt. to get him to prison.
what a difference, police being arrested now. before no one dare do that. democracy at work along with the constitution.
keep it up , good work.
i never believe i will read or hear that a law enforcement officer arrested for breaking the law in guyana.
It look like as a nation we are finally serious ,the only thing missing is the big fishes are still free to ply their trade with no arrest .
Well said, plenty of these people who’s training are to uphold the law, are the biggest MULES who does anything for money, thats why all the prisons have DRUGS, GUNS, TELEFONE ——–YOU NAME IT AND IT ‘S THERE———
(P.S) He should be in jail already and be Dishonorably Discharged.
