Ronald Gajraj, who controversially served as Guyana’s Minister of Home Affairs and later as High Commissioner to India and Bangladesh, died yesterday.
Saying that he lived a very “useful life,” former president Donald Ramotar hailed Gajraj for his ability to stem the crime wave during the PPP/C’s time in office despite the political interference he was facing.
“You can now appreciate what Gajraj was up against at that period in time and the fact that they managed to bring the situation under control with the cooperation of some other officers in the force who worked with him professionally,” he told Sunday Stabroek hours after the 65-year-old died at a city hospital.
