Energy agency inspector sacked for refusing polygraph test

Vernon James

A Guyana Energy Agency (GEA) inspector was sent packing last week after he did not volunteer to take a polygraph test.

The man Vernon James who is based in Linden said that he fears that more of his colleagues will fall victim to this “injustice”.

James yesterday travelled from his home to tell his story.

He said that it was the GEA head Mahender Sharma who give him his marching orders. Efforts by Stabroek News to contact Sharma were futile.

James explained that he began working with the entity in 1982
