Well-known businessman Hareshnarine ‘Chiney’ Sugrim, owner of Guyana Tractor and Equipment (Guytrac) and the Classic Hotel in Berbice and who was acquitted of money laundering charges in the United States in 2016, died yesterday.
After the Sugrim family made the announcement on the Guytrac Facebook page yesterday, a number of people expressed condolences.
“Chinee the world stands still for you uncle!” one person posted on social media.
“Harshnarine Sugrim was a truly exceptional man … one of the most special I ever knew. He was the uncle to lecture you as well and take you to a rum shop … the one all the kids gravitated to,” another expressed.
