Judge finds fraud in sale of boating services property

Justice Sandil Kissoon in a judgment on Tuesday ruled that a marina and boating services property in Essequibo sold to Antares Inc back in 2017 had been fraudulently sold below value by the daughter of the deceased to whom the property was willed as trustee of beneficiaries.

Justice Kissoon noted in no uncertain terms that in on the fraud, was lawyer for the daughter (the executrix), Senior Counsel Stephen Fraser; while the record showed that the sale was to a company established after the testator’s death and staffed with immediate relatives of the executrix.

The Judge noted that as an officer of the Court, Fraser’s actions ought to be condemned in the strongest possible terms.
