.....the government of Guyana is actively considering hiring foreign prosecutors to assist in the prosecution of cases which may arise from the more that 50 audits instituted under the new administration.

.....

Among the entities that were audited were the Guyana Geology and Mines Commission (GGMC), the Guyana Gold Board (GCB) and the National Industrial and Commercial Investments Limited (NICIL). According to information released to the National Assembly these audits have cost the government in excess of $133 million.

Are they pro-bono?  Last I heard, Treasury was looted and left bare by the PPP!!

As long as there is Tax there is income streams into the treasury. The treasury is dry given what is supposed to be in it vs what is in it at a particular time. When the APNU came into office they had no cash. Since then the have uncovered hidden stash and have reallocated income etc. The oil windfall was propitious and gold is also on the rise. The allowed them to buffer the shortfall due to loss of rice income.

They are trying to scare opposition politicians out of the country.  It's all a bluff to put more monies in the pockets of themselves and their cronies.

They are afraid they might indict themselves if independent auditors from abroad should investigate.

The prosecution who put away RK have volunteered their services FREE!  They come armed with evidence, revealed by RK, Ed Ahmad and others.

Jagdeo started to wail when Granger announced this plan. He cannot bribe his way out of that one.

Good move by the president. 

"President David Granger, responding to questions on last week’s edition of “The Public Interest”, said, “We have already considered recruiting and employing additional prosecutors. We realize that there may be resource problems within the police force. We are intent on having more trained investigators. Whether they come from abroad I cannot confirm now, I prefer to have Guyanese investigators who are competent and honest. I don’t have a hang-up about foreigners, it is being actively considered but I will go local first. We have also considered hiring person who are retired. Guyanese are asked to retire at a ridiculously young age so those retirees who have proven competent and honest will be employed,” the President said."

Very nice Prez, very nice

And when they do indict themselves, it'll be like the Rodney COI. "Ink nah deh in de printah".

Definitely an enlightened position from Granger.  They need to evaluate the cases and make sure that they have a winning position before proceeding.  The benefits must outweigh the costs.  Guyana can least afford a useless debacle.

Jagdeo is making plans to flee to India now.   We already know that a Guyanese jail isn't a nice place to be.

Can't vouch for that. Maybe you had a taste of Guyanese jail.
