Auditor General recommends criminal probe of Guyoil fuel controversy

The Auditor General’s probe of the allegations of procurement irregularities at the state-owned Guyana Oil Company (GUYOIL) has found that there was “inappropriate communication” by officials of Guyoil and a dealer who alleged he was assured a contract and has recommended that the police determine if any laws were broken.

As per the recommendation of the Auditor General, Minister of Finance Dr. Ashni Singh has directed Guyoil’s Board to share the report with the Guyana Police Force.
