- for threatening behaviour charge By Geeta Rampersaud
FIFTY-five-year-old Linden Primo, who discharged a loaded firearm on Sunday during the PNCR’s 18th Biennial Congress, was charged yesterday with threatening behaviour. He is the bodyguard of Brigadier (rtd.) David Granger, leader of the People’s National Congress Reform (PNCR) and the main opposition coalition, A Partnership for National Unity (APNU), and is a security guard for a mining company. He appeared yesterday before Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry, denied the allegation against him, and was placed on self-bail after answering a threatening behaviour charge. The charge Primo faces detailed that on Sunday, July 27, at the People’s National Congress Headquarters in Sophia, Greater Georgetown, he made use of threatening behaviour to Akeshaw Barker, wherein a breach of the peace may be occasioned. Reports are that on the day in question, at around 09:00 hrs, Barker attended the PNCR Biennial Congress, which was held a that Party’s headquarters at Sophia. At around 13:15 hrs that day, she went to the auditorium door to see a staff member
when the defendant, who was standing approximately seven feet away from her, drew a gun from his waist, pointed it in her direction and discharged a round. The matter was reported to the police, investigations were carried out, and the present charge was instituted. Police Prosecutor Michael Grant requested that Primo be placed on substantial bail, and be made to lodge his passport with the police. However, his attorney-at-law, Mr. Patrice Henry, said his client is an American citizen, and that his passport is presently in the possession of the US Embassy. Henry also said his client is a father of two, and had never had any trouble with the law before. Moreover, he is willing to report to the police. The matter was transferred before Magistrate Geeta Chandan-Edmond for report and fixtures on August 4. Experienced legal sources told the Guyana Chronicle that the charge of threatening behaviour was the least of all the possible charges that could have been instituted against Primo. He could have been charged with carrying an unlicensed firearm, discharging a loaded firearm, and causing public terror.

Fire Chief: Sharp increase in vehicles being destroyed by fire By Michel Outridge
THERE has, for the past three years, been a sharp increase in motor vehicles being destroyed by fire, and in many cases, the fires were maliciously set. So said Chief Fire Officer Marlon Gentle yesterday. Giving statistics, he stated that, for this year from
-
January to June, they recorded 29% increase in vehicles being destroyed by fire. Gentle added that, for this year, 14 vehicles were completely destroyed by fire, while for the corresponding period last year, there were 10. He said that, this year, five vehicles were severely damaged, while nine were
- were maliciously set in most cases
destroyed last year, recording a 44% decrease. Gentle pointed out that, for this year, three vehicles were slightly damaged in fires, and seven for last year, with a 57% decrease. In total, this year there were 22 vehicles destroyed by fire, and for last year there
were 26 recorded incidents. The Chief Fire Officer told this publication that the major causes for vehicles being completely damaged by fires derived from a malicious setting, which includes fraud and to avoid seizures; and there were personal vendettas.
He explained that some persons actually set their own vehicles alight to escape insurance issues involving mostly privately owned vehicles, ranging from Sports Utility Vehicles (SUV) to cars. Gentle said that more vehicles have been destroyed by fire each year for the past three years,
and it is a serious cause for concern by the Guyana Fire Service, even though no lives were lost in those incidents.

GT&T launches innovative MMG ‘shop n go’ service -Finance Minister lauds initiative as ‘significant’ FOLLOWING the successful launch last year of the Guyana Telephone and Telegraph (GT&T) Company’s Mobile Money Guyana (MMG), the telephone company last evening launched the second phase of this service called “Shop n go”. This means that GT&T’s customers will now be able to pay for their goods and services at a wide range of places, from supermarkets, service stations, hospitals, pharmacies, restaurants, to hardware and general stores, and boutiques, just to name a few. Minister of Finance, Dr. Ashni Singh during brief remarks at the launch held at Herdmanston Lodge in Queenstown, lauded the telephone company for its significant contribution to the economic growth of Guyana. Minister Singh said

Finance Minister, Dr. Ashni Singh at last evening’s launch of GT&T’s latest service that the launch is significant, in that it offers financial services to citizens throughout the length and breadth of Guyana. He said that Government will welcome more of such initiatives. “It would be easy to regularise this as just the launching of another service being offered. I would want to say that this event
is important and symbolic. Today’s launching is a good reminder of how much our world and country has changed,” Minister Singh pointed out. The Finance Minister recalled a time when one had to use Telephone House and request an overseas call, or join a line at the Bank of Guyana to make telephone

Today, not only do persons have the telephone in their pockets, but they can also pay bills or shop goods and services by way of telephone. Moreso, companies like GT&T had to have confidence in the future of Guyana in order to invest in such an initiative. Minister Singh said that this development is testimony of how much people’s lives have changed over the years. “It didn’t happen by accident; an environment was created and conducive for investment and companies like GT&T and others to invest in Guyana. The conditions were created for economic growth and prosperity for persons to have greater disposable income, so they are able to afford more goods and services,” Minister Singh stressed. The concept of mo-

bile money is not only about changing lives, but it is a greater revolution, he asserted. There are over 600,000 cellular subscribers in Guyana. Minister Singh emphasised that the evolution of this industry to the country is the introduction of a new era, and that any initiative that allows for a non-cash service is commended and welcomed by Government. He said that there is no reason why a business person should carry large sums of cash around as the risk of such a move is significant. The Minister underscored that the industry needs to be engaged to ensure a more suitable regulatory environment is put in place. Meanwhile, GT&T’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO) R.K Sharma said the

past 20 years has brought unprecedented development increase in access to telephone service, not only in Guyana, but other developing countries. Mobile technology and wireless Internet offer access to people, goods, services and economic opportunities that are continuously growing, promising changes in the way business is being developed and conducted. Sharma said that the concept of electronic money, integrated in the company’s mobile phone infrastructure is of tremendous significance for the commercial, retail and financial sector. MMG- ‘Shop n go’ can be accessed through 70 merchant locations across Guyana, including Ashmins, Giftland Office Max, New Thriving Restaurant, Jerries, Bel Air Service Station, DeSinco, Nirva’s, Gizmos and Gadgets, Cell Phone Shack, Woodlands Hospital, A and S complex, Charity Essequibo, among others.

PM accepts resignation of Sports Minister By Peter Richards PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad, (CMC) – Embattled Sports Minister Anil Roberts Thursday resigned from the coalition People’s Partnership government after he came under heavy criticism following the report of an audit into a multi-million dollar LifeSport programme riddled with discrepancies including procurement breaches and the involvement of some persons in criminal activities. Prime Minister Kamla Persad Bissessar said that she had accepted the resignation of her minister and had replaced him in the “interim” with the Science and Technology Minister, Dr. Rupert Griffith. “I have decided to accept the offer of resignation as Minister of Sports from Mr. Anil Roberts. Further I have advised his Excellency, the acting President of Trinidad and Tobago, Mr. Timothy Hamel-Smith that with effect from today, Thursday, July 31, 2014 in accordance with the provisions of Section 39 and 79 (1) of the Constitution of Trinidad and Tobago that the appointment of Anil Roberts as Minister of Sports be revoked,” she said. Last weekend, Prime Minister Persad Bissessar Friday said she had asked her Attorney General Anand Ramlogan to hand over copies of the audit of the controversial LifeSport programme to the Director of Public Prosecutions and the Commissioner of Police “to investigate, detain and prosecute those guilty to the fullest extent of the law”.

Earlier, supporters of the Movement for Social Justice (MSJ), which at one time was a member of the coalition partnership government, staged a picket outside the offices of the embattled minister and had vowed to do so “every Thursday until the Prime Minister acts”. Roberts had since the controversy over the LifeSport programme erupted, dismissed calls for him to either step down while the probe was taking place or be fired, saying that his name had not been mentioned in the audit. The Congress of the People (COP), the second largest partner in the coalition, had called on Roberts, a member of the COP to step down while the police probe was being undertaken.
Sports Minister Anil Roberts leaving Cabinet meeting last month (File Photo) Calls had also come from the main opposition People’s National Movement (PNM) noting “nowhere else in a world that embraces any semblance of decency would such a person be permitted or even desired near a Cabinet.”
It said that there had been “too many sordid affairs” surrounding Roberts and warned Prime Minister Persad Bissessar that “to keep him as part of your team is to drive a nail into your own political coffin”.

Emancipation and real freedoms TODAY, Guyana celebrates Emancipation Day 2014 with many activities planned countrywide to observe what should have been the end of an abominable period of subservience of one people to a dominant class in the family of humanity. According to an article published in today’s edition of this newspaper: “The abolition of slavery preceded the introduction of the indenture system to British Guiana and the cessation of both should be celebrated in a national context, because this was the genesis of the Guyanese nation. Our past, present, and future endeavours are intricately interwoven
and cannot succeed without an ethos of unity.” However, within the relativity of contexts, Emancipation did not confer true freedom on the ‘freed’ slaves because of economic dependence on the former slave masters. After the slaves were freed, the colonials imported contracted workers, including Africans. As the author posits: “Slavery is a relative term. One can be enslaved by love, hate, societal mores, the defects in one’s own psyche and within the boundaries of one’s limitations: but an enslavement where one human being is levelled to the equal, and below, of a beast of burden is a
degradation both to the oppressed and the oppressor, for while one allows the bestiality of his physical being, the other displays bestiality of a mind domineered by agreed and godlessness which, perhaps, is a worse enslavement.” The abolition of slavery preceded the introduction of the indenture system to British Guiana, and the cessation of both should be celebrated in a national context, because this was the genesis of the Guyanese nation. Our past, present, and future endeavours are intricately interwoven, and cannot succeed without an ethos of unity. And therein lies the tragedy of Guyana, in that we continue to see
each other as ‘them and us’, without recognition that our future lies in bonding and not bondage, either to ethnic, cultural, religious, communal or any other mores and/or traditions; that our differences enhance our potential for growth and development, and the tapestry of our various cultures enriches our montage of nationhood, similar to the way our foods have blended and become Guyanised. As Guyanese all across
the country celebrate the freedom of our African ancestors from the slave masters, we should, as a nation, join in these observances, because, at the end of the day, we are, in the words of our national motto, coined by the late Brindley Benn, “One People, One Nation, (with) One Destiny”. And in the recognition of, and adherence to, the principles of this motto lies the true freedom of all Guyanese.
AG raps KN for ‘bizarre’ headline KAIETEUR News, yesterday, headlined with an article, which alleged that a black SUV used by the Attorney-General (AG) and Minister of Legal Affairs, Anil Nandlall, was used to “terrorize” staff from the local daily. The AG has since dismissed the report. Below is the full text of the AG’s statement on the matter: My attention was drawn to the bold front page headline in Kaieteur New, 31st July, 2014 – ‘Men in Anil Nandlall’s vehicle terrorizes Kaieteur News staff’. The story following the bizarre headline was a hair rising tale about a vehicle owned by the Ministry of Legal Affairs, Government of Guyana transporting, persons who, while seated in the vehicle, took out photographs of Kaieteur News premises at Saffon Street with a cell phone. The article al-
leged that someone was armed with a gun in the said vehicle. On Monday, I received a text message from Mr. Glenn Lall and then a phone call from Mr. Adam Harris informing me, that persons in this vehicle were seen taking out photographs with a cell phone of Kaieteur News premises. I explained to Mr. Harris my whereabouts of that day and the description of the vehicle that I was using at the time. My location was several miles away from the vicinity of those premises and the vehicle that I was using was appreciably different in make, colour and year of manufacture. At that time no mention was made of any gun. In any event, assuming that Mr. Glenn Lall and Mr. Adam Harris were correct in their information to me, it is not against any law to take out a photograph of any person, building or vehicle. Armed with that
belief, I assumed that the matter was put to rest as it is so trivial. The headline and story to which I have made reference clearly proved me wrong. A gun has now been introduced into this suspense-filled saga. I have spoken publicly on many occasions about the abuse of press freedom by media operators in Guyana this is but yet another example. It is not the first time that the owner of Kaieteur News has used his newspaper as a weapon to attack me and to prosecute a personal vengeful agenda. On or around July, 2007, while my brother, was a senior functionary at Guyana Power & Light Inc., he led a team of investigators who conducted an inspection at that very Kaieteur News office building at Saffon Street, where it was discovered that a GPL meter was deliberately bypassed and electricity was being consumed
illegally. As a result, A few days thereafter, Kaieteur News was back that is, on the 22nd July, 2007, the Kaieteur carried a front page headline that I was wanted by the Police in relation to a vehicular accident. It was a total fabrication. A vehicle owned by my wife was involved in an accident. I was not the driver and therefore could not be of any assistance to the Police.

I am not that gullible. These are two gentlemen, who earn their livelihood by slaughtering the character and reputation of others and when there is a slightest evidence of a reaction, they, cowardly run for cover, using the innocent workers of Kaieteur News as their shield. The truth is that it is not the workers who are terrorized, but the two of them. I want to make it clear that were I to embark upon the type of conduct which is alleged and endowed with the motive to which I have been ascribed, I will not use a vehicle that is so easily discernable and the staff of Kaieteur News will not be the focus. After all, they have done me nothing.

Emancipation Day messages... Emancipation’s a victory for all humanity ON this August 1, 2014, Emancipation Day, I extend heartfelt Emancipation greetings to all Guyanese, but especially to Guyanese of African origin for whom this day resonates with so much significance. The legal abolition of slavery, better known as Emancipation, is a day with special meaning for all colonized peoples, but more so for persons of African descent whose ancestors were forcibly removed from their homelands and consigned to a life of servitude. Millions of innocent persons were sold into a life of unspeakable indignities, treated as the property of others, and forced to work under arduous and demeaning conditions. Emancipation was a historic act that brought to an end the most abominable system created by humanity. Emancipation represented a victory for all humanity. While Emancipation did not end the oppression
PPP... A ‘significant milestone’ in the annals of our history THE People’s Progressive Party (PPP) extends greetings to all Guyanese, more particularly our Afro-Guyanese brothers and sisters on the occasion of the 176th Anniversary since the abolition of slavery. This is a good time to reflect on the pain and sacrifices made by our African ancestors who were brought to our shores against their will to provide cheap labour in the sugar plantations. They were treated in an inhumane manner at the hands of the planter class, and were stripped of their humanity and dignity in the greed for profits. What the planters failed to destroy, however, was their strong will and determination to free themselves from the yoke of slavery and bondage. Despite their sufferings, our history is replete with stories of heroism and rebellion, led by slave leaders such as Cuffy, Quamina, Damon and Accabre, who are today
existing under colonialism, it rendered non-existent its most disdainful feature: The treatment of human persons as chattel. In this way, it marked a distinctive break with the past. In Guyana, it led to the development of a vibrant peasantry; laid the foundation for the village movement; and prompted the emergence of indentureship when labour shortages resulted on the sugar plantations. Emancipation represented a defining moment in our country’s history, and an important landmark in the epic struggles to end colonial rule and foreign exploitation. On this Emancipation Day, I salute the indomitable spirit of all those who resisted the cruel and inhumane system of slavery; their sacrifices are permanently etched in Guyana’s struggle for national liberation. On this Emancipation Day 2014, may we also be inspired by the timeless message of Emancipation: That no system of injustice lasts forever! Happy Emancipation to all Guyana!
First Lady, Madame Deolatchmee Ramotar... immortalized in the annals of our history. The PPP is proud of the contributions made by our African ancestors, and the contribution they have made, and continue to make, to the development of our country. Thanks to their contributions, the foundations for a modern and cohesive society have been firmly laid. Guyana, today, is a free and democratic multicultural society, characterised by political and ideological pluralism and the rule of law. The PPP takes this opportunity to once again salute our Afro-Guyanese brothers and sisters on this significant milestone, and calls on all Guyanese to unite as we seek to further consolidate on the economic and social gains we have made over the years. These gains have benefited all Guyanese, regardless of ethnicity or political affiliation, and are manifested in an enhanced quality of education delivery, improved health care, access to house lots and credit facilities, improved water supply-in short a vastly improved quality of life for all our citizens. Happy Emancipation Greetings to all Guyanese!
RedJet CEO dies of heart Minibus driver attack in Ireland stabbed to death
RedJet’s Ian Burns
IAN Burns, CEO and founder of the now defunct regional carrier RedJet, succumbed to a massive heart attack in his native Ireland on
Wednesday, at the age of 58. Burns founded and ran the regional low-fare carrier, RedJet, which started operating in May 2011, being incorporated in Barbados after Jamaica refused to register the airline in that jurisdiction. Burns believed that the region could be unified by affordable and efficient air travel, which would be a boon to the region’s economy. With two MD-82 planes and 94 employees, Burns set about to link Jamaica, Barbados, Trinidad, St Lucia and Guyana with fares as low as US$9.99 one way. His model posed a serious threat to the more traditional regional carriers, which sought to see the end of RedJet.(Asif Hakim)
in passenger row ROUTE 44 minibus driver, Gavin Fiffee, a 30-year-old father of two and of Plaisance, ECD was last night stabbed to death during an argument and subsequent fight with another bus operator over passengers. An eyewitness who was on the park told the Chronicle that she saw the other man stab Fiffee several times, causing him to fall to the ground. “People (were) trying to part them but they didn’t want to stop. When I see the other man with his weapon, I stay far because I didn’t want to get involved. After he stabbed the man several times, people on the scene then rushed him to the hospital” the eyewitness said. A more detailed story will be published in a subsequent edition of the Guyana Chronicle. (Asif Hakim)
Here’s to Freedom! And the sacrifices of our foreparents! ON the occasion of the 176th Anniversary of the Abolition of Slavery, I extend best wishes to Guyanese in general, and to Afro-Guyanese in particular. This is, without doubt, one of the most important dates in our history. It is also one of the major blows struck for the Independence of our country. As we salute our foreparents for the sacrifices and the struggle they made towards our freedom, let us today take inspiration from it to score greater successes in building a strong economy, and in strengthening our country as a whole. Once again, best wishes for a brighter future for all. HAPPY EMANCIPATION!
His Excellency, the President...
PNCR... A significant day in the foundation of our nation THE People’s National Congress Reform (PNCR) joins the Guyanese people in celebrating the 176th Anniversary of the emancipation of enslaved Africans. The Party regards this event as the most significant in the foundation of our nation, and the formation of our society. It was the first step in our country’s long march towards social equality, economic independence and political freedom. Africans in the united Guiana colonies of Berbice, Demerara and Essequibo regained their freedom on the 1st August, 1838 after two hundred years of enslavement. Emancipation on that day commemorates not only the bloody sacrifices of the Africans who struggled, suffered and were slaughtered for the sake of the freedom we all enjoy today, but also the birth of the nation itself. The entire Guyanese nation should participate in this public celebration. Emancipation is Guyana’s most important national celebration. It marks the start of the most significant demographic change, through the coming of the Portuguese, East Indians, West Africans and Chinese, and the transformation of the coastal landscape through the creation of free villages and the diversification of the economy into the production of food crops, gold-mining and logging. It led, also, to the liberation of society through the popular movements for educational development, labour organisation and political mobilisation. Emancipation celebrations in 2014 also commemorate the 251st anniversary of the Berbice Revolt of 1763, led by Kofi, and the 191st anniversary of the Demerara Revolt of 1823 inspired by Kwamina. Guyanese of all races are the beneficiaries and heirs of the sacrifices of our nation’s first freedom fighters. Emancipation, after all, was not a finite event that occurred 176 years ago. It was the commencement of a continuing process which must aim at providing a “good life to all Guyanese.” Happy Emancipation!

Emancipation Day: Time for reflection
By Hydar Ally GUYANESE will today observe 176 years since the emancipation of slavery. This is indeed a good time to reflect on the path we have travelled as a nation, in particular the difficult days of slavery and indentureship, when our foreparents were subjected to the greatest cruelty imaginable and indignity ever inflicted on Man by their fellow men. The genesis of that inhuman treatment meted out to our foreparents was greed and the lust for money, which, in the opinion of the masters, could best be obtained through free labour, and later on, when slavery was abolished, by indentured labourers who, for all practical purposes, were subjected to the same indignity as that of the slaves. Instead of physical chains, the indentured labourers were subjected to paper chains, which effectively denied them their basic human right to liberty and freedom. It is important to understand the early origins of the slave trade was first started by the Portuguese in 1542, but which rapidly spread to other parts of Europe and North America. It soon dawned upon the owners of the plantations that African slaves at that time were the solution to their labour shortages, which, in the case of sugar cultivation, was highly labour intensive. It was not long afterwards that the importation of forced labour began on a large scale, which, in a way, established a pattern of social formation which persisted until the 1960s in the case of Guyana, the pattern of a White oligarchy, possessing immense political and economic power, ruling over a population brought from other continents against their will. It is not known definitively when slaves first arrived in British Guiana. The Dutch West India Company, in keeping with the prevalent mercantilist doctrines, was given the mo-
nopoly to bring slaves. They sent a ship to Africa in 1657, but there is no record that slaves were brought to the colony. The first recorded slaves arrived in 1672, when two groups were brought to Essequibo by the Dutch West India Company. Ill-treatment and high mortality rates were not limited to the Middle Passage, as the journey between Africa and the West Indies was called. Living conditions on the plantations were abominable. Houses consisted mainly of crude huts built on low-lying, badly drained Hydar Ally land. They were located on a section of the plantation known as the “nigger-yard”, the slaves being referred to as “niggers”. Later, the Indian immigrant workers lived under similar conditions in logies, barrack-type, mud-floored ranges in the “bound-coolie-yard” and were described as “coolies”. The hours of work on the plantations were long and hard, and during harvesting period, the slaves worked in shifts which lasted throughout the night. The slave drivers were always at hand to accelerate the pace with the constant use of his whip. The slaves received no wages; they were given weekly rations of two pounds of salt-fish, beef or herring, some lard and plantains. They supplemented their diet with cas-
savas, tannias, eddoes and yams grown by them. A scanty supply of clothing was given annually at the discretion of the planters. The quantities stipulated by regulations were six yards of red cloth, and six yards of yellow cloth every six months. Despite a few benevolent masters, the prevailing pattern during the time of slavery was a vicious cycle of punishment-escape-capture-punishment. It would be incorrect to assume from the foregoing that the slaves remained passive to the cruelties inflicted upon them. On several occasions, they revolted. Each time, they were brutally treated and subdued by whipping, mutilation of their limbs, burning over a slow fire, or execution on a rab rack, a torture instrument on which the joints were broken, and the person left to die slowly. Despite the harsh treatment, the slaves were not easily intimidated, and several epic battles and revolts took place from time to time, the most notable of which was the Berbice Slave Rebellion of 1763, led by Cuffy. By 1807, the slave trade came to an end, and in 1834, slavery officially ceased. The manumitted slaves were, however, required to serve a period of apprenticeship. The agricultural workers were required to serve for six years, and the non-agricultural workers for four years. In 1838, slavery was finally abolished, and all slaves became free from servitude. It is important that we understand our history, and the pains and sacrifices made by our foreparents in the struggle for a free and independent society. It was a long, hard and bitter struggle, but thanks to their efforts, we are today a united and free people. The challenge before us is to safeguard our unity, and do not allow ourselves to be political pawns of those who would seek to divide us for short-term political gains.
US Embassy in historic Iftar dinner

Dinner evening at the residence of Charge d’Affaires, the Hon. Mr. Bryan Hunt, recently. While Haji Roshan Khan thanked the Charge d’Affaires at the event, other invitees included Sheikh Moenul-Hack, Chief Executive Officer of the Central Islamic

and Training at the Guyana Islamic Trust; Dr. Rosh Khan, CEO/Founder of Social Rank Media, and others. Mr. Brian Hunt, in company of other functionaries of the Embassy of the United States, welcomed the small gathering, and a lively conversation took place
Roshan Khan (left) of the RK Security Service and other special invitees at the auspicious event
on the history of Guyana as it pertains to aspects of slavery and Indentureship; Independence and the era of post-Independence, the presence of President Carter and the Carter Center in Guyana to oversee the 1992 elections; freedom of choice in religions in Guyana, and the right to believe or disbelieve. Everyone agreed that Guyana is a blessed and fortunate country where all religions co-exist in peace, harmony and love; where respect is shown, and all participate in various holidays and ceremonies. Haji Roshan Khan expressed the amazing fact that, in Guyana, where there is a mosque there is a church and mandir not too far away, and none ever disturbs the other, each always displaying care and respect; even helping and protecting the other. The guests expressed appreciation for the respect shown by the invitation, and Haji Roshan Khan noted that history has been created here in Guyana, since it is the first Iftaar (breaking of
the fast) hosted by the US Embassy. Sheikh Moen delivered a most pleasant short talk on gratitude. He spoke of the respect and goodwill of Islam towards all religions, and all humanity, and noted the great contributions of the USA to democracy and freedom in Guyana. His talk was well received. Bro Wazir spoke of Plantations and Indentureship. The Muslim guests were most appreciative that an appropriate place of prayer was prepared. The dinner was amazing, being Indo-Pakistan style curries, naan (baked roti) and even kheer (sweet milk rice), made by the hands of the Charge d’Affaires in person. He is a most competent cook, in that he spent six years as Consul General of the USA in Pakistan in the past, and has enormous respect and love for Islam. He developed great love for the religion, the food and people of Pakistan and the religion of Islam. He ensured that he mastered the art of cooking Pakistani food.

Old Kai: Chronicles of Guyana… PNC/R needs to explain...
Who provided the Congress Place gunman with an illegal firearm
OLD Kai is watching the Police closely in their investigation of the shooting incident at Congress Place, more so since the alleged gunman has finally been apprehended after trying to flee the jurisdiction. You will notice that after the individual has been arrested, the PNC/R suddenly toned down their rhetoric, where initially they tried to insinuate that he was somehow planted at the Congress by the PPP. Now, Winston Felix is telling the media that the shooting was somehow justified. We are told that Felix was placed in charge of the PNC/R internal investigation of the incident, after which Granger promised to reveal the findings. But here we are, even before the investigation has been concluded, Felix is already making preemptive statements. This exposes the fact that the investigation of theirs was a sham, as from the moment the incident occurred, they already had the details. This shooting did not occur in Bagdad or Gaza; it occurred a few feet from where these PNC/R leaders were located right inside Congress Place. If Granger and Felix were competent security experts, the
lives of PNC/R members would not have been placed in danger; and secondly, an investigation would have been conducted and presented the next day. Felix’ efforts at dampening the impact of this incident also indicates that the PNC/R leadership had long settled on the type of outcome they wanted, which is why the public needs to be vigilant against any effort to either withhold information, or try to use the past association of certain individuals with the GPF to influence the investigative team. Now that the alleged gunman has been captured, the onus will be on Granger to defend his allegation, linking the shooter to the PPP. It does not help Granger’s case that the media have reported that the man identified as Linden Primo is close to him and his office, even though he denied knowing him. This story takes another strange twist, when one takes into consideration that we are told security at Congress Place was so tight, certain delegates, especially those from Linden, were not allowed into the compound, which initiated the fracas in the first instance, but a man, who Granger tells us he is not aware of and whom he claims
Culture Ministry urges nation to refrain from vandalizing national monuments By Rebecca Ganesh-Ally THE Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sport is urging the public to refrain from defacing and vandalising the monuments and historic sites around the city. The most recent monument defaced is the 1823 Monument located on the sea wall. The 1823 Monument is dedicated to the country’s historical past, and nationally recognises our ancestors who endured and overcame great hardships to secure freedom for themselves and descendants. “In unveiling this monument, we are formalising the honour that we have kept in our hearts; and as a united people, acknowledging an epic
contribution of our people’s quest for justice, dignify and liberty. May this monument inspire all Guyanese to join hands in partnership for peace, progress and prosperity,” were the words of His Excellency President Donald Ramotar at the launch of the 1823 Monument in August 2013. The Demerara rebellion of 1823 was an uprising involving more than 10,000 slaves. It took place in the former Crown colony of Demerara-Essequibo. The rebellion took place on 18 August, lasted for two days, and was led by slaves with the highest status partly in response to the poor treatment they were subjected to. There was also the mistaken be-
lief that the emancipation offered to slaves by the British Parliament was being withheld by the colonial rulers. Instigated chiefly by Jack Gladstone, a slave at "Success" plantation, the rebellion also involved his father, Quamina, and other senior members of their church group. The Ministry issued a statement expressing disappointment at the defacing of yet another monument. “We are disheartened by such distasteful acts, especially at such a time when Emancipation celebrations are fast approaching. These sites are of great historic value, and should be held in high regard by all who visit them”, the Ministry release said.
is not linked to the PNC/R, can easily walk in with an unlicensed firearm. Then the troubled General Secretary Oscar Clarke adds his bit in the media by indicating that persons were not allowed into the compound with weapons. Well, if this is the case, then it could only mean that the gunman was provided with his illegal weapon inside of Congress Place, which, though not surprising, is very troubling. Primo needs to now tell investigators who exactly provided him with the weapon inside Congress Place. If, as the Police have indicated, he is not a licensed firearm holder, and as the General Secretary has confirmed that no one was allowed with weapons in the compound, then surely this investigation should now be expanded, as other persons may very well have to be charged. It obviously speaks to a conspiracy inside Congress Place, and Party members should take note, as it was their lives which was being put in danger. Old Kai is also wondering how many other individuals were walking around the PNC/R Congress with illegal weapons, and why was there such a need.

RODNEY’S DEATH: AN ENIGMA BEING ANSWERED Special Report on the Rodney Commission of Inquiry by Shaun Michael Samaroo
Father Rodrigues accuses PNC Government, Army, Police of Rodney assassination - US Embassy officials visited Rodney’s home after assassination - Father Rodrigues comforted, prayed for Rodney family on day of assassination WHO assassinated Dr Walter Rodney? The pain and emotion on the face of Catholic Priest, Father Malcolm Rodrigues, as he sought to provide evidence in Guyana’s search to unearth the truth to that question, was very visible yesterday from the witness box at the Walter Rodney Commission of Inquiry at the High Court in Georgetown. That question haunts Guyana to this day, 34 years after the populist political leader, while resisting the dictatorship government of the People’s National Congress (PNC), died under suspicious circumstances in a bomb blast as he sat in his car in Georgetown, on the evening of June 13, 1980. Yesterday, the aged, sober-faced Father Rodrigues, clad in a simple shirt-jac, faced the Guyanese nation from the witness box at the Rodney Commission of Inquiry, and declared, his voice strong, assured and confident: “I believe that (Dr Rodney’s assassination) was clearly planned and carried out by the military arm of the (PNC) government, the army and police working together.” That’s the first direct statement from a witness appearing at the Presidential Commission openly pointing a finger at the PNC Government, the Guyana Defence Force (GDF) and the Guyana Police Force for “planning and carrying out” the deadly attack that caused Dr Rodney’s assassination. A distinguished physicist, who graduated from Oxford University, Father Rodrigues took the vow of chastity, poverty and obedience to his choice to serve society as a Priest in 1962. Born in Georgetown in 1941, he had lived through colonial rule, political Independence, and the draconian dictatorship of the PNC Government. Apart from studying physics at Oxford, in England, he also studied Theology and Philosophy. He became a teacher in Guyana, serving on the Corentyne and at St Stanislaus College in Georgetown, before moving to become a distinguished Professor of Physics at the University of Guyana (UG), attaining the position of Deputy Vice-Chancellor in 1992. Today, he is appearing at the International Commission that is probing how and why Guyana’s foremost Historian and world-renowned scholar, Dr Walter Rodney, was assassinated in his homeland as he led a popular mass resistance against the PNC Government’s iron rule over worsening human and socio-economic conditions in Guyana during the 1970s and 1980s. With Georgetown’s citizens bustling about their daily chores in the city in hot sun and a soft breeze, vehicles traversing the streets around the High Court, where the Commission is meeting in an air-conditioned room, Father Rodrigues relived the memories of that dark day in his country’s history, and his role in its unfolding. Now pastoral, peaceful, and languishing in busy activity under the tropical sun, Georgetown sees the darkness, the terrors, the conspiracies and sinister political intrigues that stained its history unravel, as witness after witness reveal what really transpired under the PNC dictatorship, which resulted in Dr Rodney’s brutal death. With the Commission convened under the direct order of President Donald Ramotar, Father Rodrigues finally has the chance to shed light on this nation’s dark history, and to clear his soul and satisfy his good conscience to see justice in Dr Rodney’s death come to light. He spent his life, over three-plus decades, advocating and leading the struggle for human development, education, social justice and political freedom in Guyana. He played a major role in the struggle to end the dictatorship of the PNC Government, with free and fair elections ushered in in 1992. Father Rodrigues played a crucial role comforting and offering prayers and moral support to Dr Rodney’s widow, Patricia Rodney, and their three young children on the day that Dr Rodney was assassinated, and in the days following. The first night after the assassination took place, on the night of Friday, June 13, 1980, he stayed up all night at the
Rodney home in South Georgetown, and took phone calls and queries as the young children and newly widowed Patricia Rodney slept off the tragic shock of the assassination. Father Rodrigues told the Commission, in his witness statement, that he was “integrally involved” in the workers’ union at UG, where he and world-renowned Guyanese Economist, Dr Clive Thomas worked together. The union “persuaded” UG to “have Dr Rodney give monthly lectures” at the university. Father Rodrigues said he developed a friendship with Dr Rodney, and attended his lectures. “I was impressed with his perspective,” he said of Dr Rodney. Eventually, in 1976, the union at UG joined with several other organisations to form the Working People’s Alliance (WPA). The WPA engaged in picketing exercises in public and other peaceful forms of protest “as deemed necessary”, and picketed the High Court as Arnold Rampersaud was being tried for treason, Father Rodrigues said. “During 1978 to 1979, letters of mine complaining of State interference in the Judiciary were published” in two inFather Malcolm Rodrigues at yesterday’s hearing
dependent newspapers, the Catholic Standard and the Contact, another Caribbean Church publication, he said. By this time in 1976, the PNC Government was moving to nationalise all schools and businesses under State ownership and management. “All private schools were nationalised by the State. Exercise books with the face of then Prime Minister, the late Forbes Burnham, were distributed throughout the schools, and Forbes Burnham would boast publicly that the PNC has a hand in every home,” Father Rodrigues told the Commission. These alarming events caused the WPA to declare itself a political party, with Father Rodrigues opting out of playing a role, but still participating in peaceful street protests and picketing exercises to protest deteriorating social, human and economic conditions in Guyana. He said he saw, at these meetings, when “the audience was attacked with sticks and other weapons... The attackers were usually a combination of people dressed in the red, green and black uniforms of the House of Israel; persons dressed in the green uniform of the Young Socialist Movement (YSM) (Editor’s note: the YSM was then the youth arm of the PNC party), persons dressed in police uniform, and civilians.” Father Rodrigues said that in 1979, persons dressed in YSM uniform attacked himself and a group of Dr Rodney’s supporters gathered at a protest at the High Court. The PNC’s YSM-dressed attackers beat people with batons, “resulting in injuries to several members in the crowd.” Police dressed in uniform “forced” members of the crowd to enter a bus, which drove them to an isolated, abandoned area and deserted them there, with several persons nursing serious injuries, including
Reuben Gilbert, who suffered “many” broken ribs. Then, on June 13, 1980, having just had a face-to-face meeting with Dr Rodney, Father Rodrigues heard the news of the deadly bomb blast. He immediately got to St Rose’s High School and accompanied Patricia Rodney and the three children, taking them to their home. That day, a group of policemen showed up at the Rodney house saying they possessed a warrant to search the house. Patricia Rodney accompanied them on the search of bedrooms and living room. They left half an hour later. After that, a group of men visited the house, saying they were from the United States Embassy, and offered their sympathies to Father Rodrigues and the family. Commissioner Seenath Jairam asked father Rodrigues if the US would have had an intelligence interest in Dr Rodney, and Father Rodrigues agreed. After they left, Father Rodrigues stayed glued to the radio, listening for news of the tragedy facing the Guyanese nation. The 6 am news the next morning on the radio carried a report on the assassination the day before, saying that Dr Rodney’s face was blown off, and unrecognisable. But when Father Rodrigues visited the morgue to identify Dr Rodney’s body, in the company of Dr Leslie Mootoo and three Policemen standing guard over the body, he found Dr Rodney’s face fully intact. Father Rodrigues said he realised that the public information on the PNC Government-controlled radio station was “prepared prior to” the assassination, and that the only radio station in the country was peddling lies and fabrication. The Catholic Priest said the PNC Government, Army and Police “clearly planned and carried out” the assassination. The Commission adjourned after Father Rodrigues’ testimony looked like it would extend beyond the day’s schedule, as cross examination would have been intense and push past the day’s set time. Commission Chairman, Sir Richard Cheltenham adjourned the week’s hearings until next Monday, and asked Father Rodrigues to be on standby to resume his testimony, including expanding on his assertion that the PNC Government and its military arm had “planned and carried out” the assassination.
‘Now pastoral, peaceful, and languishing in busy activity under the tropical sun, Georgetown sees the darkness, the terrors, the conspiracies and sinister political intrigues that stained its history unravel, as witness after witness reveal what really transpired under the PNC dictatorship, which resulted in Dr Rodney’s brutal death. With the Commission convened under the direct order of President Donald Ramotar, Father Rodrigues finally has the chance to shed light on this nation’s dark history, and to clear his soul and satisfy his good conscience, that justice in Dr Rodney’s death is coming to light.

AROUND THE COURTS With Geeta Rampersaud Accused who assaulted victim in court sentenced to five months’ jail
GEORGETOWN Magistrate Geeta Chandan-Edmond on Wednesday sentenced 19-year-old Wesley Griffith of 283 Thomas Street, Mackenzie, Linden to five months’ imprisonment for unlawfully assaulting 50-year-old Deryck Halley in Magistrate Judy Latchman’s Court on June 20 last. Griffith had pleaded guilty to the charge before Magistrate Chandan-Edmond on July 16 last; and in handing down the sentence, this magistrate took into consideration the aggravating and mitigating factors of the case besides its serious nature and the fact that the incident occurred in a courtroom. Griffith was appearing before Magistrate Judy Latchman on the day in question to answer a robbery-with-violence offence allegedly committed on the same self-employed Deryck Halley on June 26, 2013 at Lot 14 North Sophia, Greater Georgetown when he committed this other offence. He was at that time accused of using violence in robbing Halley of one
motorcycle; one Blackberry cellular phone valued at $52,000; one Nokia cellular phone valued at $25,000; and cash amounting to $30,000, besides house keys. The accumulative value of that robbery was $277,000. During Griffith’s attack on Halley in Magistrate Latchman’s Court, the magistrate’s orderly had escorted her into her chambers and another police rank had occupied himself in placing prisoners down the court chute. There were other prisoners in the dock, and there were also two other ranks in plainclothes who assisted to bring the situation under control. Griffith has at the Mackenzie Court an ongoing $5M armed robbery matter allegedly committed at Amelia’s Ward in Linden along with Ruel Williams, 32, of Lot 657 Industrial Area, Mackenzie; and Nellon Brummel, a 27-year-old porter of Lot 27 Lower Kara Kara, Linden. Griffith faces six charges, along with his alleged accom-
Youths caught with cache of arms,ammunition fined, jailed EIGHTEEN-YEAR-OLD Kevin George of Lot 99 Haley Street, Wortmanville and 18-year-old Dapper Johnson of Lot 158 Curtis Street, Albouystown, Georgetown were earlier this year busted in South Ruimveldt with one M15 rifle, 61 live rounds of matching ammunition, and grenades. On their first appearance before Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry, they had both pleaded not guilty to three charges, the first of which alleged that on January 22 last, at South Ruimveldt, Georgetown, without lawful authority, they had explosive devices in their possession – one concussion and one explosive grenade. Particulars of the other two charges were that they also had in their possession one M15 rifle and sixty-one rounds of .223 ammunition, while neither was the holder of a firearm licence. The prosecution’s facts are that the
two youths were seen by ranks on a motorcycle patrol at around 11:15 hours, acting suspiciously on Aubrey Barker Road, South Ruimveldt, in the vicinity of Penny Lane, moments before they were nabbed with the weapons. At the time, George, who was named as the Number One accused, was spotted with a haversack on his back, but as the ranks approached them, he quickly handed it over to the other teen. However, Johnson threw it on the ground, and the ranks were able to pick it up and search through it, uncovering in the process the cache. The two were then apprehended and taken to the Brickdam Police Station, where charges were subsequently laid against them. Before the party left the scene of the discovery, one of the ranks reportedly asked George and the other accused whether they were licensed firearm
holders, and they both indicated that they were not. In sentencing the duo on Wednesday, Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry said that in regard to the firearm and ammunition charge, the prosecution had proven its case beyond reasonable doubt and the defendants were found guilty. However, she ruled that the explosives charge was “improperly brought” and she consequently dismissed it. Before handing down the sentence, the Chief Magistrate took into consideration the mitigating as well as aggravating factors; the age of the youths, the fact that they were first time offenders, and the time they had spent in remand, among other factors. Each of the duo was fined $100,000 on each charge, along with three years’ imprisonment, which will run concurrently.
Man compensates friend - for injuring him in in open court name-calling incident LEON Giles (no address given), an employee of John Fernandes Limited, appeared on Wednesday before Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry, charged with unlawful wounding. He pleaded guilty to the offence, particulars of which said that on July 26, at Vlissengen Road, Georgetown, he unlawfully and maliciously wounded Frank Fraser. According to the prosecution’s facts, the men are friends, but on the day in question, they had a misunderstanding over name-calling, and the defendant became annoyed and dealt Fraser several cuffs to his head and other parts of his body, causing him to receive injuries to
his face. Fraser was taken to the Georgetown Public Hospital for medical attention, and Giles was arrested after the matter was reported to the police. The defendant said that he and the victim are friends, and came to an agreement to settle the matter. He offered to pay $100,000, but the virtual complainant (VC) asked for $150,000. Since Giles had $100,000 on his person, he handed over the money in court, and was given until September 30 to pay the remaining sum. After Fraser accepted compensation, Giles was placed on self bail.
plices, all of which allegedly occurred on Friday, January 31, at South Amelia’s Ward in Linden, where under arms they robbed a family of a car, cash and jewellery.
False declaration costs man $30,000 fine THIRTY-five-year-old Michael Mendonca of Lot 134 Mon Repos North, East Coast Demerara was on Wednesday fined $30,000, with an alternative of three months’ imprisonment, for signing a false declaration in order to obtain a passport. He pleaded guilty to committing the offence before Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry in the Georgetown Magistrates Courts. Details of the offence are that on Friday, August 7, 1998, he signed a written declaration stating that he was Robert Mendonca, and that he had never previously applied for a passport. Police Prosecutor Michael Grant confirmed the facts as charged, and Mendonca’s attorney, Mr. Paul Fung-aFat, said his client had a golden opportunity to work in Trinidad, but has now lost everything. Mendonca said his action was a mistake for which he was very sorry.

Home Affairs issues new requirements for passport applications
THE Ministry of Home Affairs (MoHA) on We d n e s d a y s a i d i n a press release that, with the introduction of the
machine-readable passport system, there was a requirement by the Ministry that the Guyana Police Force (GPF) would
implement an arrangement whereby members of the public applying for passports for the first time would present to the
Immigration Department birth certificates that were issued not more than six (6) months prior to the date of the application. The intention was to guarantee the integrity of the newly implemented machine-readable passport system. U n f o r t u n a t e l y, t h i s arrangement was not implemented by the GPF, as required by the MoHA. Cognizant of the concerns of members of the public, the MoHA, along with the GPF, has reviewed the entire system pertaining to the issuance
of passports, and has now put in place the following administrative system to address this matter. Persons applying for passports are asked to submit the following: Passport Application Form Birth Certificate One (1) Passport –size photograph and a fee of four thousand ($4,000) Guyana dollars. In relation to lost/ damaged passports, the
processing fee is fifteen thousand Guyana (G$15,000) dollars, and additional conditionality’s are required to be satisfied to facilitate issuance. The Guyana Police Force through its Immigration Department will make every reasonable effort to expedite the processing of the applications, but the five (5) day processing time guaranteed by the Force is not likely to be honoured because of the need for a more robust verification process to accompany the production of the travel document.

Man who allegedly raped 63-year-old woman faces retrial
By George Barclay TWENTY-six-year-old Michael Scotland, who allegedly raped a 63-year-old woman in 2007, is to face a new trial after a mixed jury before Justice Nareshwar Harnanan failed to reach a unanimous verdict at conclusion of his trial on Monday. The disagreement was in proportion of eight to four. Justice Harnanan told the accused, who was on bail, that because of the jury disagreement, he would have to face a new trial at a future criminal session. During the trial, the victim told the court that while the crime was being committed on her, she protested to the accused and told him “Boy, you could have been my son.� The accused, who pleaded not guilty, led an alibi defence. The jury deliberated for five hours before delivering their verdict of disagreement. And the forewoman told the judge that further directions would not serve any useful purpose in helping them to reach a verdict. Attorney-at-Law Miss Dhanika Singh from the DPP Chambers was the prosecutrix.

Three rape accused freed in two cases - after victims refuse to testify By George Barclay
JUSTICE Rishi Persaud on Tuesday directed two separate jury panels at the Demerara Assizes to return not-guilty verdicts in favour of three accused, because the victims decided not to testify against them. In the first case, brothers Elroy Parks and Gary Atkinson had allegedly raped a victim in 2004, and she reported her ordeal to the police. The brothers appeared in court, pleaded not guilty to the offence, and had a mixed jury empanelled to try their case. But instead of coming to court and narrating what she had told police, the young alleged victim disclosed that she did not wish to say anything in the matter, leaving the judge with no alternative other than to direct the jury to return a formal verdict of not guilty in favour of the accused. The two accused were later discharged by the judge. A similar situation developed in respect to the case of William Gomes of Soesdyke/Linden Highway, who also pleaded not guilty to the offence of carnal knowledge, said to have been committed in 2007. When the alleged victim refused to testify, the judge again had to direct the jury to return a verdict of not guilty in favour of Gomes, who was later discharged. Attorney-at-law Miss Mercedes Thompson of the Chambers of the DPP prosecuted in both cases.

Rastaman on trial for incest, indecent assault of daughter By George Barclay
THE 20-year-old daughter of Georgetown incest accused, Cecil Smith on Wednesday told Justice James BovellDrakes and a mixed jury about the day her father ‘fingered’ her and had sexual intercourse with her when she was just 15 years old. Smith was arrested and charged following police investigations into the allegations made by his daughter. Sporting long plaits, and represented by Attorney-at-law Keavon Bess, Smith has pleaded not guilty to incest and indecent assault. The trial is ongoing before Justice James Bovell-Drakes and a mixed jury at the Demerara Assizes. One of the witnesses called by Prosecutrix, Mrs. Tashana Lake Wednesday was the 20-year-old victim, who disclosed how she was tackled, at knife-point, by her father on August 17, 2009. According to her, “My dad fingered me, threatened me with a knife, and had sex with me with the aid of petroleum jelly.” The young woman said that on the day in question, she was living at a cousin when, because of a misunderstanding, the cousin sent her home to her father. On arrival there, she had a conversation with her dad. She said she was in her father’s bedroom when he entered the room with a belt. She added, “I thought he was coming to beat me, but instead he told me to take off my clothes. I took off my clothes, and he asked me to lie down on the bed. I did so. He then took his right index finger, which he placed into my vagina, and began moving same round and round. Later, he came on top of me and started to wine. “He was rubbing my breasts. He took off my nightie, came on top of me, and had sex with me. I was made to sleep naked on the bed with him that night. “The next morning when I woke up, he asked me if I had boyfriends. I told him no, and that I was only concerned with the boyfriend I had from Trinidad. He then told me that if I have sex with him, I could have a boyfriend, and I could have my freedom to go places.” The girl admitted under cross-examination that she had been in Trinidad with her mother, but her mother sent her back to Guyana, because her mother did not like the boy she was friendly with. The trial is continuing.

Housing & Water Ministry holds cultural programme to commemorate Emancipation By Rebecca Ganesh-Ally AS part of the Ministry of Housing and Water ’s extra-curricular activities, a cultural programme to commemorate Emancipation festivities was held yesterday at that Ministry’s Brickdam Office.
Housing & Water Minister Irfaan Ali expressed gratitude to the ancestors that fought for the freedom of everyone, and said that some persons will look at Emancipation as freedom granted to slaves, but it is more than that. “We were not only given freedom from slavery, but freedom from oppression;
freedom to have a better life in all ways possible. “Our ancestors struggled, and because of their personal sacrifices, today we have a better life,” Minister Ali noted. Minister Ali further emphasised that we need to be aware of our history and what our ancestors fought for, to look at their sacrifices
and their determination and better ourselves and our lives. “We are inheritors of the freedom, culture and heritage of our ancestors, and today we celebrate our respect and honour for the sacrifices and struggles they endured for us,” Ali concluded. Through their well-coordinated programme, the ministry’s staff enlightened the gathering on the history of emancipation and on what happened during the years of slavery. As explained, Angola was chosen as the African
country of 2014 since a majority of slaves would have been bought from there. The staff echoed the words of the Minister regarding the inhumane system of slavery which was abolished on August 1, 1834 in all British colonies, including British Guiana, now Republic of Guyana. While the British Emancipation Act was passed in 1833, it came into force in 1834. The Emancipation Act catered for a period of transition, called the apprenticeship system, under which the ex-slaves were
still subjected to their former masters. This apprenticeship system lasted for another four years, 1834 to 1838, after which ‘full freedom’ was achieved, bringing to an end the atrocious system of slavery which, for centuries, had brought so much pain, suffering, and bitterness. Minister Ali extended emancipation greeting to all his staff and to Guyana, and hope that the country reflects on the struggles of our ancestors, so as to create a better country for tomorrow.

YOU AND YOUR HEALTH
MISS Guyana Universe 2013, that showstopper Katherina Roshana, speaks out on Suicide Katherina says the responsibility for implementing any such plan lies not only with Government agencies, but with the police, NGOs and religious bodies. She feels that suicide and suicide prevention are issues affecting the whole of society, and therefore suicide prevention activities should aim to develop a sense of place and promote connectedness to the community. It is important for individuals to understand they can recover from a suicide attempt and reconnect with the community and support services. Asked how to recognize risk, she responded that suicide is a highly complex issue with many contributing factors, such as poor physical health, drug and alcohol abuse, and sexual identity confusion issues. She emphasized, however, that not all individuals with these problems are at risk, and those that are may only be at risk at certain points in their lives. She said that according to psychological research, the majority of people who can be categorised as at risk do not, and will not ever, take their own lives.
Equally, there are a number of protective factors which reduce the likelihood of suicidal behaviour and improve a person’s ability to cope with difficult circumstances. She claims that one of the key aims in suicide prevention is to develop these protective factors in individuals and communities, including resilience; self esteem, secure identity, and sense of purpose; problem solving and help seeking; and good physical health and wellbeing. Miss Guyana Universe 2013 proposed that an understanding of the individual determinants that could lead to suicide was crucial for prevention or the implementation of any plan. These individual determinants are as follows:
Gender While men have higher suicide death rates than women, suicidal behaviour is an equally serious problem for both women and men. Men tend not to recognise or respond to their own emotions, or seek help or communicate their feelings. This may be due to a belief that this behaviour shows weakness, or because men are unaware of available support services. Whatever the reason, she feels that prevention should target both males and females, as they are equally at risk of suicidal behaviour.
Age She claims that suicide rates in Guyana for young people are above those of the general population, with the suicide death rate for young people aged 15-24 years being highest. She said that youth suicide and suicidal behaviour remains a significant issue for individuals as well as communities. Factors such as depression, disruption to psychological, educational and social development, legal or disciplinary problems, parental illness or divorce, and strain on personal relationships (for example, breaking up with a girlfriend or boyfriend) can increase risk of suicide in young people. The hazardous use of alcohol and other drugs by young people can also increase suicide risk, she said, stressing that the impact of emerging issues such as cyber bullying need to be addressed, as well as the risk of contagion or copycat suicides. Mental illness People with a mental illness are at a greater risk of suicide than the general population. She said that the risk of suicide further increases among individuals experiencing more than one mental illness at any one time. Poor mental health is also associated with suicide risk in older age groups, particularly when combined
With Katherina Roshana
with negative life events, including separation and divorce, loss of a partner or child, family conflict, or unemployment. Many people, she said, do not seek treatment for their mental illness, and people aged 75 and above are less likely to have received treatment for their depression than their younger counterparts. She warns, however, that not all people with a mental illness display suicidal behaviour, nor do all those who die by suicide have a mental illness. She stressed that suicide is not simply a mental health issue. Alcohol and other drugs Alcohol and other drugs are frequently associated with suicidal behaviour. Miss Guyana Universe 2013 warns that acute alcohol use may increase suicide risk up to 90 times, in comparison to abstinence, with intoxication often predicting the use of more lethal means in suicide. Alcohol may also play a part in the suicide deaths of those with no previous mental illness or suicidal inclination. Reduced inhibition and increased impulsivity, including risk taking behaviour resulting from alcohol intoxication may increase the likelihood of suicidal thoughts and suicide. She says that a study of violent deaths found

Bombshell’s Most Provocative Babes…
The ladies soliciting corner
Karen James: a countryside cupcake infused with fulfilling Bombshell’s Hottest Dudes… tropical nectars WHAT I am noticing these days is that our countryside lasses are certainly working against the stigma fuelled by disillusioned individuals who biasedly conclude that “country gyals ain’t ready yet!” Such thoughts are the silly cogitations of many misinformed individuals who have not taken time out to explore the vast lands of Guyana. Had they so done, they would have realized that it’s actually the ‘country villages’ that are popular for serving up exceedingly beautiful and desirable lasses. And I mean very pretty minus the war paint some girls plaster on like putty to look breathtaking. Hence with pleasure we bring you the delightful Karen James, representing the East Coast of Demerara on this page. Karen enjoys dancing, reading, modelling and interacting with interesting individuals (guh suh you boorish ones). She sees herself as soon representing Guyana on the international runway. With her very appealing features, pouting lips, and suggestive smile, Karen’s personality is enhanced with
Karen James: the countryside cupcake that reeks of tropical nectars a natural confidence and charisma belonging only to international stars. This damsel best describes herself as a tasty countryside cupcake, filled with intoxicating tropical nectars. How sweet and enticing! Now, my goodly gentlemen, Karen is not here looking to be taken, but instead stands as a ‘beauty pillar’ to
defy the odds and haters. As a matter of fact, her natural good looks have given her the privilege of competing in the lineup of dazzling delegates at the upcoming Miss Region 5/Perth Beauty and Intelligence Pageant. Good luck to you dearest Karen… Bombshell wishes you all the best in your future endeavours.
KERON Noble mixes ‘swaga and groom’ to keep a lady satisfied This week ladies we are proud to be featuring a guy who takes pride in his looks and believes that ‘looking good always’ is the key of making that special lady proud. This dude in an interview noted that every woman loves to be hanging on the arms of a man with arresting good looks and a body that would cause her female competition to go green with envy. That of course is the main reason why Keron Noble practically ‘lives in the gym’, and never misses an appointment at the barber. Noble thinks that while men should not be downright ghetto in their demeanour, they must however possess a little ‘swaga’ that give them that raunchy sexiness, adored by modern day women. Now ladies, feast your eyes as you wish…. This dude is however not for the taking. The last time I saw him, he was curled up with his dream woman who is expecting… But guess what… Next week maybe your luck will be better.
Keron Noble
Good groom and swaga makes every lady happy.

GCB congratulates Guyana U-15 team THE executives, members and staff of the Guyana Cricket Board (GCB) proudly extend congratulations to the Guyana team for capturing the 2014 edition of the WICB Regional U-15 title. Guyana had to win their final round match against Jamaica to win the Tournament as they went into it with only .1 of a run ahead of Trinidad and Tobago, and they held their nerves in a keenly contested match to bring the title home. We w e r e c o n f i d e n t from the inception that
this team would excel as it comprised extremely talented and disciplined young boys. They have shown the true signs of their willpower, perseverance and determination. Out of five games, these young talents lost one match and outshone four other teams with resounding victories to finish on 25 points while runners-up Barbados finished on 19.5. Apart from marking their name on the title, Guyana were awarded the most disciplined team ti-
tle, and Kevin Sinclair received the best bowler prize for claiming 11 wickets. Coach Julian Moore and manager Andy Ramnarine also received special prizes for being on the winning team. We are now looking forward to our U-19 boys to get past Trinidad and Tobago and take the three-day title. Before the start of the final round, Guyana stood at the top of the points table with 26.2 points, followed by Leeward Islands on 25.6.

Director of Sport, Neil Kumar, whose National Sports Commission (NSC) has the responsibility for the games, says that all
systems are in place for a successful hosting of the games. Prime Minister Samuel Hinds is expected to officially declare the games open.

Moeen puts India in a spin as England level series ... England unchanged for next Test By Liam Morgan SOUTHAMPTON, England (Reuters) - Spinner Moeen Ali claimed six wickets to inspire England to a crushing 266-run win over India yesterday to level an absorbing series at 1-1 with two matches to play. Spinner Moeen took six for 67, the first five-wicket haul of his Test career, and India crumbled to 178 all out in their second innings on the final morning of the match. England took the six wickets they needed to secure a first Test win since they beat Australia at Durham last August, ending a dismal run of 10 matches without victory. “It was a bit of a scramble for the souvenir stumps at the end as it was some people’s first win and I want them to remember that,” England captain Alastair Cook said at the presentation ceremony. “But the senior players stood up as well, the team
Bowling hero Moeen Ali is congratulated by team mates Joe Root and wicketkeeoer Jos Buttler. was fantastic from one to 11. “Moeen Ali’s bowling has come on leaps and bounds this summer; he’s fronted up to the responsibility, worked really hard and responded well. Getting six wickets to win the game, you couldn’t ask for more.” Moeen dismissed Ravindra Jadeja, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Mohammed Shami in the space of 12 balls, before he aptly took
the final scalp of Pankaj Singh to complete figures of six for 67. Earlier in the morning, James Anderson, who today faces a hearing into his part in an altercation with Jadeja at Trent Bridge, had got England off to the perfect start by dismissing Rohit Sharma and Mahendra Singh Dhoni. India batsman Ajinkya Rahane played with composure to reach his second
half-century of the match, but his unbeaten 52 was in vain as England maintained the dominance they had shown over the first four days. Man-of-the-match Anderson drew Sharma into a faint edge through to wicketkeeper Jos Buttler before dismissing Dhoni in similar fashion with a ball that nipped away from the right-hander. Cook made a crucial bowling change, by in-
Nijel Amos beats David Rudisha to 800m gold OLYMPIC 800m champion and world record holder David Rudisha was dethroned by his young rival Nijel Amos as the 20-yearold took the Commonwealth title in style. Amos, who won silver in London in the greatest 800m race in history, kicked hard down the home straight to overtake Rudisha and cross the line with his arms outstretched in celebration. Rudisha as always went to the front at 150m and tried to control the race from there, just as he had in setting that phenomenal record in 2012. But, wrecked by a knee injury and a summer where he has been chasing fitness as well as his rivals, he could not take it out fast enough. He was powerless as Botswana’s Amos accelerated past him with 50m to go to take gold in one minute 45.18 seconds.
Rudisha’s 1:45.48 won him silver with Amos’s South African training partner Andre Olivier taking bronze, Scotland’s Guy Learmonth running a brilliant personal best of 1:46.69 for sixth and England’s Michael Rimmer, after an injury-ravaged season, two hundredths of a second further back in seventh. The 25-year-old Rudisha had gone through 400m in 52.7 seconds, more than three seconds down on his split from the Olympic final. And it was that comparative lack of gas that allowed Amos, his country’s flag-bearer at the opening ceremony, to come through the traffic down the finishing straight to repeat his victory at the Monaco Diamond League. Amos told BBC Sport: “I
troducing Moeen who bowled Jadeja with a fulllength delivery before inducing Kumar, who has three half-centuries in the series, to edge on to his pad and the ball looped up to Anderson at gully. Moeen continued to bamboozle the Indian batsmen and he bowled Shami and Singh to wrap up a deserved victory for the hosts. “We’ll have to think about it for the next Test as the extra batsman didn’t really score anything - a lot will depend on the kind of wicket that’s provided but I don’t expect it to be different to the wicket here,” India captain Dhoni said. “(Fast bowler) Ishant Sharma definitely won’t be fit for the fourth Test. Pankaj Singh bowled really well, he was the one person bowling the right length and he was unlucky not to get wickets. Whenever I asked him to bowl he gave it everything.” The fourth Test begins at Old Trafford, Manchester on August 7 and England have named an unchanged 13-man squad.
am so happy but David Rudisha will always be the hero of 800m.” It had been billed as one of the races of the Commonwealth - one of the few in which the best in the world have been challenged by a talent only fractionally behind. Rudisha was given a reception befitting a great champion
by a capacity Hampden crowd, and in defeat he showed characteristic grace despite the disappointment. “The race was good, but in the last 100m I found it a little bit difficult,” he said. “He is a tough competitor. We ran a tactical race, but he was good tonight.” (BBC Sport)

Wounded Lugg leads Jamaica’s charge with 109 solid base for a big total. McCatty scored 70 that included 11 fours from 134 balls in a shade under three hours and Walters, promoted from a position in the lower order, made 34. Deron Hypolite has captured two for 55 from 25
overs and fellow off-spinner Gidron Pope has supported with two for 64 from 26 overs. Officially, Windwards entered the match in third place with 22.2 points and Jamaica were fourth on 20.8.
Regional Under-19 Scoreboards GUYANA vs T&T
Leroy Lugg
GEORGETOWN, Guyana (CMC) – A courageous hundred from Leroy Lugg emphasised his class and led a strong Jamaica batting performance over Windward Islands in the Regional Under-19 Championship here yesterday. Lugg defied a leg injury that visibly hampered his running between the wickets throughout his 5½-hour stay at the crease and hit 109, as Jamaica reached 272 for six in their first innings at the close on the second day of their third round match for a lead of 20. The 6-foot, 4-inch tall opener used a Windwards attack that was tamed by the docile Guyana National Stadium pitch to his advantage – and became the second batsman to stroke a hundred in the match following 127 from Windwards captain Roland Cato the previous day. Lugg reached his milestone in streaky fashion when he advanced to off-spinner Gidron Pope, was deceived by the flight of the delivery and, looking for a lofted straight drive, got a thin inside edge past wicketkeeper Anson Latchman for his last boundary. He smashed 11 fours and one six from 261 balls before he gave a return catch to off-spinner Deron Hypolite essaying a tired-looking lofted straight drive, leaving the Jamaicans on 250 for five. Lugg shared an opening stand of 133 with Odaine McCatty and put on 64 for the second wicket with Nicholas Walters to give the defending double-crown champions a

Noble House Goals Galore Indoor Hockey Championships
Fiedtkou’s hat-trick enables Spartans to secure a 7-6 win over Pitbulls SPARTANS captain Marzana Fiedtkou continued her fine form in the Noble House Goals Galore Indoor Hockey Tournament netting another hat-trick for her team in their 7-6 victory in the junior division over the Pitbulls on Wednesday evening at the National Gymnasium. With the Spartans giving up a five-goal handicap at the start to the Pitbulls, Fiedtkou’s goal-laden performance along with a double from Aliyah Gordon and an Alysa Xavier penalty corner goal, the match was sealed and they maintained their status as one of the favourites for the gold. Junior division pool leaders, Revelation and Old Fort Shooting Stars, battled to an exciting draw 15-15. Beginning with a seven-goal deficit, it was a race against the clock for Revelation as they wasted no time in getting onto the scoreboard in just the second minute through Tekiesha Delian.
Revelation made up the deficit just before the half. After seven unanswered goals in the first half, the game seemed all but sewn up for Revelation but the Shooting Stars seemed to have been revitalised by their half-time team huddle. The Stars defended relentlessly in the second half to keep Revelation scoreless and surprised their senior counterparts in hanging on for the draw at full time. The Under-19 mix managed their second victory of the competition, this time over the Hikers ladies with an 8-5 result. With the Under-19 enjoying a four-goal handicap at the outset, the Hikers’ two goals from Charlyn Elliot and Nicole Eastman were not enough while Robert Brumell scored for the second time in as many matches for the Under-19s. In the senior division, the Pepsi Hikers continued to steamroll all opposition as they came from behind to
give Blue Steel their first loss of the competition. With favourites Hikers beginning at 0 and Blue Steel (+7), the Hikers would have evened the score by halftime had it not been for a penalty stroke conversion for the Blue Steel by veteran Philip Fernandes. The Hikers showed their class and superior fitness as they continued their high tempo throughout the second half emerging with the 12-8 victory and their undefeated record intact. Kingston Hockey, featuring several players who had taken a hiatus from the game continued to impress those in attendance with their level of play. Beginning with a +10 handicap to the Gladiators +8, Kingston managed to maintain their margin matching the Gladiators goal for goal as the match progressed. Onassis Fraser was once again the standout for Kingston with a double strike to
match that of Gladiators’ Mark Fraser. With Kingston scoring three unanswered goals in the opening half, the Gladiators would have had to dig into their reserves to produce a stronger second half, to return to within striking distance, but Kingston managed to hold them off with a 14-12 victory. The final senior division match saw a depleted Old Fort Viking succumb to an exuberant Saints by 12-9. Despite a hat-trick from Viking John Abrams, his side could not match the young legs of the Saints army who marched to their first victory in the competition. The senior pool at the end of the evening finds the Pepsi Hikers sitting on top with seven points followed by Kingston Hockey and Blue Steel on six points. GCC have four points and Saints follows on three. The junior division finds the surprising duo of Old Fort Shooting Stars and Revela-
tion sharing the top spot with seven points each. The Spartans and Under-19 follow on six points each.
The tournament continues tomorrow and Sunday with the final scheduled to begin at 18:00hrs on Sunday.

Taylor inspires Tallawahs win over Hawksbills
Man-of-the-Match Jerome Taylor’s opening spell decimates the Antigua Hawksbills.
J E R O M E Ta y l o r showed signs of returning to his best form with a match-winning spell of 4 for 18 to spur the Jamaica Tallawahs on to a seven-wicket win over the still winless Antigua Hawksbills yesterday at Sabina Park in Kingston, Jamaica. Taylor ripped through the top order to leave the Hawksbills in a hole at 36 for 4 in the eighth over from which they could not recover. Tallawahs captain Chris Gayle chose to field first after winning the toss and
was rewarded by Taylor’s incisive opening spell. It began when Devon Thomas edged a ball onto his stumps in the fourth over for 3 and was bookended by Taylor’s athletic one-handed catch off his own bowling to remove Ben Dunk for 23. Dunk was one of only three players to reach double-figures for the Hawksbills as Nikita Miller picked up where Taylor left off and nabbed 3 for 17 in four overs. A steady drizzle turned into a downpour with one ball to go in the 16th over
Guyana poised for outright win after Chanderpaul unbeaten ton … T&T follow-on 194 runs behind By Calvin Roberts BOUYED by an unbeaten ton from West Indies Under-19 opener Tagenarine Chanderpaul, hosts Guyana were in a commanding position to force an outright win at the end of the penultimate day of their final round clash against Trinidad and Tobago in this year’s Regional Under-19 three-day tournament at the Georgetown Cricket Club ground. Resuming on their overnight total of 228 for 5, with Chanderpaul on 79, Guyana declared their innings close at lunch with the score reading 310 for 9, of which Chanderpaul contributed an unbeaten 132, before they bowled out the Twin Island Republic youths for 117 for a healthy 193-run lead. A slight drizzle prevented the Guyanese from making any inroads in Trinidad’s second innings, forcing play to be called off
before a ball was bowled at 17:05hrs yesterday afternoon, after Guyana had enforced the follow-on. Earlier in the day, Chanderpaul saw the quick demise of Kemo Paul (14) and Kemol Savory (0) which left Guyana on 232 for 7, before he was joined by Damion Waldron, with whom he added 48 valuable runs for the eighth wicket, posting his century in the process. Chanderpaul, whose father, the dependable West Indies middle order batsman Shivnarine Chanderpaul was at the venue, faced 339 balls while batting for 433 minutes, reaching his ton with a magnificent drive off Jessie Bootan for his 11th four back past the bowler with authority. After getting there, he opened his shoulders to hit Akeel Seetal over mid-wicket for six, but was later given a life by Brandon Jaggernauth, who grassed a catch while sta-
tioned at deep mid-wicket, when Chanderpaul looked to hit Justin Joseph over that area. Chanderpaul lost Waldron (13) and Steven Sankar (0) in quick succession, but Keon Morris (5), who was playing his second game for Guyana at this level, displayed a level head to partner Chanderpaul and push Guyana to 310 for 9 before they declared their innings closed on the stroke of lunch. Overall, Chanderpaul batted for 480 minutes faced 373 balls and struck 12 fours and one six, while Samuel Roopnarine (3 for 60), Seetal (2 for 44) and Joseph (2 for 73) did the damage with the ball for T&T, who at tea were 51 for 4 in reply. They lost Amir Jangoo (8), Brian Christmas (6), skipper Jeremy Solozano 23 (4x4) and Camilio Carimbocas (12), but Jaggernauth who was yet to score and Jameel Manniram (1)
were looking to repair the damage. They pushed the score to 82 after the break, before T&T slipped to 86 for 7, losing the wickets of Manniram who struck three fours in his 23, Jaggernauth (9) and Joseph (1), at which stage, Anderson Phillip threw all caution to the wind. He took a liking to Shiraz Ramcharran, hitting him for two fours in one over, followed by a six and four in his next in his whirlwind 23 before he was lbw to a googly from Sankar that kept low, at 112 for 8, and five runs later, the innings was ended with Seetal unbeaten on 1. Waldron, Sankar and Ramcharran all took two wickets each for 9, 25 and 39 runs respectively for Guyana, even as Balchand Baldeo, Keon Morris-who started the slide and Paul, chipped in with a wicket each.
and the result was an hour and 40-minute delay with the score on 78 for 8. The match was reduced to a 17-over affair with the Hawksbills eventually ending on 89 for 9. After Duckworth-Lewis calculations were taken into account, the Tallawahs were set a target of 87 in 17 overs. Gayle got off to a methodical start, going without a boundary until the sixth over when he targeted Carlos Brathwaite. Gayle smashed back-to-back short balls over midwicket for six as part of a 16-run over to get the wheels in motion.
He lofted Ben Laughlin over long-on for six at the start of the 14th over to bring up his 50 off 32 balls. Gayle’s sixth six, deposited over midwicket on the final ball of the over, ended the match with three overs to spare and ended unbeaten on 59. The Hawksbills are still mathematically alive for a CPL playoff spot despite their 0-6 record but would need to win their final three games and also have the Barbados Tridents lose their final four contests while also surpassing the Tridents on net run rate.

Springer rallies Barbados with unbeaten century GEORGETOWN, Guyana (CMC) – Shamar Springer hit an unbeaten century to lead a strong Barbados reply against Leeward Islands, on the second day of their third round match in the Regional Under-19 Championship here yesterday. The all-rounder finished the day at Enmore on 118 not out as Barbados, responding to the Leewards’ challenging 292, reached 254 for six – 38 runs adrift of first-innings lead. Springer has so far stroked 13 fours in an innings that has consumed 166 balls and lasted just over three hours. He was well supported by Akil Greenidge who chipped in with 59. The pair rescued Barbados from a precarious position of 52 for four, adding 124 for the fifth wicket to revive the innings. Even when Barbados lost two quick wickets to slip to 196, Springer found a steady ally in Matthew Jones, who was unbeaten (19), as they added a further 58 in an unbroken
Chad Williams
seventh-wicket stand. Seamer Asharn Hodge has been the leading bowler with two for 44. Earlier, the Leewards were dismissed for 292 after resuming the day on 240 for six with Jaeel Clarke, unbeaten on 27 at the start, converting his innings into a well-played 54. Left-arm spinner Chad Williams proved the best bowler with four for 52 while fellow spinner Jonathan Drakes snared three for 93.
