Barbara Amundarain

Two Venezuelan nationals were yesterday each fined $30,000 and ordered deported after they admitted to illegally entering Guyana.

The charges, which were read separately, alleged that Barbara Amundarain and Juline Perez on December 28th, 2017, at Lethem, entered Guyana by crossing a land frontier and failed to present themselves to an immigration officer.

They both pleaded guilty when they were brought before Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan in Georgetown.
