Edghill says bodies boat found by Nicaragua likely the same one seen in Guyana’s waters

Minister of Public Works Juan Edghill says it is “highly probable” that the boat containing bodies which was found in Nicaraguan waters on Monday is the same which local authorities lost sight of after it was discovered floating offshore Guyana more than two weeks ago.

“It is highly probable that it is the same boat. We have every reason to believe it is the same boat,” Edghill told Stabroek News in an invited comment yesterday.

According to Edghill, authorities here have not been able to engage their counterparts in Nicaragua as yet to be provided with details.
