A delegation headed by Rob W. MacDonald, Trial Attorney, US Department of Justice, Office of International Affairs and including members of the United States Marshall Service, Department of Justice and US Law Enforcement Officers with responsibilities for the Caribbean Region met with Attorney General and Minister of Legal Affairs Anil Nandlall, SC, on Tuesday 20th September 2022.
A release from the AG’s Chambers said that the engagement is another step of deepening relations between the Government of the United States of America and the Government of Guyana on the important issue of the administration of criminal justice, with particular focus on extradition from Guyana to the United States of America and from the United States of America to Guyana.
Also attending the meeting with the Attorney General was Solicitor General Nigel Hawke.
Sources say that this meeting and a recent one with Federal Bureau of Investigation officials would signal that the US is seeking to clear channels to ensure that extradition requests and cross-border investigations could move swiftly along.
