Police say complaint received against Dharamlall

Relative to questions from the media regarding the sexual assault allegations against former minister Nigel Dharamlall, Crime Chief Wendell Blanhum has indicated that a formal report was made by the complainant to Police at the Cove and John Police Station. He noted that the allegations are serious and the matter is under active investigation.

Crime Chief Blanhum provided the above update to the police media unit a few minutes ago, during which he indicated that he would have spoken to sections of the media that reached out to him over the weekend for an update.

The statement by the police came after a complaint today by the Guyana Press Association about silence on the reported new complaint against Dharamlall.
