There is enough information in the public domain that the Government of Guyana had closed association with drug accused Roger Khan. The nation has learnt through reports coming out in the media that Minister Leslie Ramsammy shared emails with Roger Khan to aid in the purchasing and training of spy equipment which is enough to warrant an investigation of the police. ![]() * e-mail correspondence written by Khan’s former lawyer Robert Simels named Health Minister Dr Leslie Ramsammy in relation to Khan’s training in the operation of spy equipment used here. * Khan was a wanted fugitive from the USA authorities between 2002 and 2006 but was able to acquire property signed by President Jagdeo, made under the Public Corporations Act and published in the Official Gazette. Source:June 21, 2009 *The organisation imported large quantities of cocaine into Guyana, which was then shipped to the Eastern District of New York and other places for distribution. The US government said Khan’s enforcers committed violent acts and murders on Khan’s orders that were directly in furtherance of his drug trafficking conspiracy. The paramilitary squad was referred to as the ‘Phantom Squad,’ which a confidential US source said was responsible for “at least 200 extra-judicial killings” in Guyana between 2002 and 2006.

Source: Stabroek News June 5, 2009 It is not enough for President Jagdeo when asked about Minister Ramsammy role with Roger Khan to say that he spoke to Minister Ramsammy who denied any involvement. Justice must run its course and the police have a role in ensuring this is done. It is the responsibility of the Commissioner of Police, Mr. Henry Greene, to pursue an investigation into the allegations made by Roger Khan’s lawyer. This is a serious criminal matter that requires the police getting to work at once. Roger Khan phantom squad is responsible for the deaths of hundreds of young men, many of whom bodies are yet to be found, cause of death to be revealed, and loved ones not having the opportunity to bury their remains. The Police have a duty To Serve and Protect. Over the years we have seen the police failing to do their job in a professional manner. And in some instances we get the impression that the police have made a decision to leave some cases unsolved. The nation still awaits answers into the death of journalist Ronald Waddell. |
