Goolsarran resigns amidst financial irregularities at TIGI
IT IS rumoured that Anand Goolsarran resigned retroactively as President of Transparency International, Guyana, following the discovery of financial irregularities.
The rumour seems to be grounded in some reality as Goolsarran is known to have been the facilitator of similar activities under the PNC-led Government prior to 1992.
At the helm of those decisions was then Finance Minister, Carl Greenidge. Goolsarran, as an Auditor-General from the late 80s to the end of the PNC regime, was part and parcel of the scheme to defraud the Government and people of Guyana and in the process violated the Constitution of Guyana.
Why would Goolsarran submit his resignation letter to Transparency International, Guyana, without following protocol, which is to give at a minimum, one month’s notice to a “professional” organisation?
Something is amiss about his sudden and retroactive resignation, which gives credence to the rumour. At the very time that discoveries are being made about the suspicious activities of his friend, Glenn Lall regarding his involvement in the re-migrant scheme, and the call for Goolsarran to condemn Lall for abusing the scheme, Goolsarran immediately resigns!
Whatever the reason for his sudden and backdated resignation, it seems suspect that Goolsarran should resign the way he did.
I call on all in authority to investigate this matter further, should Goolsarran be once again be caught with his paws in the honey jar.
NAME WITHHELD
