The widow of Ryan Khayum has accepted a $4 million+ compensation package from the Guyana Defence Force (GDF) following the boat accident involving a coast guard vessel that resulted in his death in April.
Chandinie Khayum had initially rejected an offer of $3.4 million offered by the army, saying that it was not enough to cover her losses and asked that they consider a higher offer.
An uncle, Ramroop Mahase, confirmed to this newspaper that the GDF returned about a month ago and made a higher offer, which the widow accepted.
