President Bharrat Jagdeo yesterday said that the emergency response at the Cheddi Jagan International Airport, Timehri following the crash-landing of a Caribbean Airlines flight was up and running in record time, dismissing suggestions that the authorities had been slow and deficient in tackling the accident.
‘From everything that I know the emergency response kicked in, the fire service showed up immediately after the incident and made sure that there was no fire…The security forces there surrounded the aircraft, the regulators were there…,”
