The Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ) has ordered the Guyana Revenue Authority (GRA) to repay more than $45 million in taxes deducted from James Ramsahoye in a decades-old action which had its genesis in the 1998 termination of his employment by the now-defunct Linden Mining Enterprise (LINMINE) and Bauxite Industry Development Company Limited (BIDCO).
Additionally, the revenue authority has also incurred a debt of more than US$32,000 in court costs which they have also been ordered to pay to the Appellant.
Ramsahoye has over the last 23 years been engaged in a number of court battles—all related in one way or the other—to his initial action.
