As the probe into the theft of supplies from the Minis-try of Health’s (MoH) drugs bond at Diamond, East Bank Demerara (EBD) widens, director of the facility, Cecil Jacques, and several other staffers were yesterday taken into custody for questioning by police.
Police Commander of Region 4 ‘B’, Superintendent Denise Griffith last night confirmed that Jacques and his staff were taken in for questioning yesterday morning. They remained in custody up to press time.
Griffith said that the arrests are aimed at aiding the probe which commenced three weeks ago when bond attendant, Terrence Williams; a retired Guyana Defence Force officer, and a doctor, were arrested.
