Discovery, seizure of semi-submersible vessel will send strong signal to drug traffickers- Minister Rohee -several questioned by CANU, investigations ongoing

WHILE the national, regional and global fight against the drug trade is one that may never end, the interception of a Self-Propelled Semi-Submersible (SPSS) vessel last month will send a strong signal to drug traffickers, both in and out of Guyana, that law enforcement agencies are on the alert and are very active. This is according to Minister of Home Affairs, Clement Rohee who inspected the 63-foot, 18-tonne vessel yesterday at the Guyana Defence Force Coast Guard Base at Ruimveldt. The SPSS vessel was discovered at a camp site in Waini River, North West District, Region 1, last month, following an intelligence-driven joint operation conducted by the Customs Anti-Narcotic Unit and the GDF’s Special Forces, Coast Guard and Air Corps. The vessel has a capacity to accommodate a crew of about four to five people and four to six tonnes of cocaine. Minister Rohee commended the law enforcement ranks who were part of the operation and said that this is a good example of inter-agency cooperation. The resources at the disposal of the armed forces are limited especially, and as such, more

cooperation and consolidation of efforts is encouraged. The discovery of a SPSS of this kind is not peculiar to Guyana, as similar vessels have been found in many parts of Latin America. At the request of the Government, experts from the US Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) were deployed to assist local law enforcement agencies to get a better understanding of the technical capabilities of a vessel of this nature. From a geo-strategic perspective, Guyana is seen by traffickers in many countries as an ideal transshipment point. Minister Rohee said that the Administration has to continue to ensure that law enforcement agencies are provided with the necessary wherewithal to fight this global scourge. Earlier this year, the marine wing of the GDF received three metal shark patrol boats from the US Government, under the Caribbean Basin Security Initiative (CBSI). The Guyana Revenue Authority (GRA) has also procured vessels, while the Guyana Police Force is currently in the process of improving capacity to conduct waterway patrols and surveillance. Minister Rohee reminded of the GPF’s strategic plan (currently being implement-

ed) which speaks to the issue of more training of ranks and overall enhancement of the marine sector of the Force. “Drug traffickers use rivers, waterways and territorial sea very frequently to conduct their nefarious activi-

Major General (rtd) Michael Atherly, were also present to get a firsthand look at the vessel. This task force recently completed the final draft of the country’s new National Drug Strategy Master Plan which has since been pre-

proved (with possible amendments from the Cabinet), funding will have to be secured for its implementation. Meanwhile, CANU’s Head, James Singh, said that thus far seven persons have been questioned in connection

Members of the Task Force on Narcotic Drugs and Illegal Firearms, headed by

with the SPSS vessel and investigations are still ongoing. “These semi-submersible vessels are built for one reason and one reason only, and that is to transport drugs, mainly cocaine. This vessel was more than likely going

to Europe or Africa, not the U.S.…the camp itself has been there for at least five months based on the materials found,” Singh said. The odometer reading revealed that the vessel travelled for only three hours and that includes a test run conducted in the Waini River by the law enforcement agencies to see the maximum speed. The top speed of the vessel, when empty, is about 1012 knots, while, when fully laden, it has an average speed of six to eight knots. This information, along with other evidence found at the camp site, has led investigators to convincingly conclude that the vessel was constructed in Guyana. The fuel and fiber glass material of which the vessel is made were all imported from another country, only the foodstuff found at the camp site was local. “This is based on us sharing information with experts, persons who have seized vessels like this before… this now moves us beyond just transshipment,” Singh said. The vessel was found in mid August hidden away in a swamp, and was transported on a barge to Georgetown, where it was hoisted by a crane unto a low-bed trailer, then brought in to the Coast Guard Base in Ruimveldt.

GRA investigates millions of $$$ in Customs duties evasion - Glenn Lall again implicated

THE publisher of Kaieteur News, Glenn Lall, may yet again be at the centre of a possible duty free infringement which the Customs and Trade Administration arm of the Guyana Revenue Authority (GRA) is investigating. Only days after being fingered in an alleged remigrant duty free concession scam, which the GRA is investigating, Lall is now at the centre of an alleged evasion whereby this company has, for over a decade now, imported printing inks and passed them off as products of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM); therefore enjoying duty free concessions for those importations. A tax analyst, who spoke with Chronicle on condition of anonymity, disclosed that a forensic audit can be launched and all the monies that were evaded over the years can be recoverable. “This can run into several hundreds of millions of dollars depending on the number of importations. The GRA has the capability of conducting such an exercise very easily. How this scam was allowed to continue over the years is anybody’s guess,” the analyst said. The Guyana Customs is currently investigating whether a consignment (one skid and 64 drums) of printing ink, imported into Guyana by the National Media Publication Co. Ltd from the Coates Brothers Caribbean Limited in Trinidad, satisfies the criteria to be treated as community goods under the Revised Treaty of Chaguaramas.

This newspaper understands that the drums containing the products have two labels, one of which states that the origin of the product is Chicago, United States of America (USA), and another that is superimposed on the first, which reads product of Trinidad and Tobago. The Guyana Customs and Trade Administration is of the opinion that the printing inks cannot qualify as being a duty free item of import since it did not originate within the Caribbean Community to which the concession is granted. A source from the Sun Chemical, which is the parent company for Coates Brothers limited, in light of the reveMr. Glenn Lall lations, responded to queries from this newspaper and has indicated that the shipment in question originated from Trinidad and was shipped from there. The source with the company said, “The raw materials to make the item were obtained by Sun Chemical and then relevant adjustments to the formulation were done in Trinidad and Tobago to meet customer specifications before

Investigations launched into major housing scam - whereby various individuals collected monies in exchange of a promise to expedite and deliver house lots

THE Ministry of Housing and Water, Central Housing and Planning Authority and the Guyana Police Force are jointly conducting investigations into a major scam unearthed whereby various individuals collected monies in exchange of a promise to expedite and deliver house lots. Information was received that the various players in the scam could not deliver on this promise and moreover, various persons who have been defrauded, have since responded to the Ministry’s recent Public Notice. According to a statement from the Central Housing and Planning Authority (CH&PA), the scam saw persons alleging that they are relatives and associates of Housing personnel, including the Minister of Housing and Water, Mr. Irfaan Ali. Some even operated as Housing staff, taking people to various Housing areas and identifying plots of land that are vacant. “Despite numerous warnings by the Ministry against entering into these transactions, persons continue to fall prey to this disease,” the CH&PA stated. The Ministry is adopting a no-nonsense approach in dealing with these fraudsters and impersonators. Nevertheless, the Public has a responsibility of safeguarding themselves. It is important to note, that some of the parties to this scam are recent applicants who are lured to the promise of expediting the processing of their land application. The Ministry is once again encouraging persons to come into us and report any instance, whereby any individual or group would have collected monies from them in an effort to “expedite” or “deliver” any service provided by the Ministry.

shipping. The individual noted that sometimes drums from Sun Chemical are reused to pack inks to “save on cost” and also highlighted that their “raw materials are made by Sun Chemical plants located around the world” and fed via sea freight. “Our operation, being located in Trinidad and Tobago, services the Caribbean Region. Hence the reason the goods are accompanied by a CARICOM invoice and the relevant documentation.” However, the Guyana Customs and Trade Administration is contending that the fact that Sun Chemicals is suggesting that the raw materials are made from various plants around the world and shipped to Trinidad, means that there are issues that have to be looked at based on the granting of such concessions, particularly with respect to “conditions to be satisfied within the understanding of substantial transformation.” As such, the Guyana Customs and Trade Administration wants to verify the composition of the “Extra Regional” materials that make up the printing inks and also “confirm that the compliance process for the manufacturing of the product satisfies the conditions approved under the Treaty” before they can go ahead and release the inks that they have in their possession. To date this request by the GRA for verification has received no response, despite several months have passed.

GECOM Chairman portrayed high degree of intolerance to PPP’s concerns - Rohee GENERAL Secretary of the People’s Progressive Party (PPP), Mr. Clement Rohee yesterday weighed in on the expansive response by Chairman of the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM), Dr. Steve Surujbally to several concerns expressed by the party. And he contended that the Chairman “portrayed a high degree of intolerance” to the party’s voicing of its concerns. “It is unfortunate that the Chairman of GECOM at his recent press conference portrayed a high degree of

intolerance with the PPP’s consistent and principled position of sharing its findings with GECOM and in the public domain,” Rohee said at the PPP weekly press briefing at Freedom House. GECOM last Thursday hosted a press conference to respond to the ruling party and the Commission’s Chairman undertook to challenge “misinformation” peddled by the entity’s critics. The point-by-point response to several areas of concerns, all of which were raised by the ruling PPP, effectively answered the

party’s call for answers. Days prior to GECOM’s press conference, the PPP General Secretary called on GECOM to explain: * The increase of almost 80,000 voters on the Preliminary List of Electors (PLE); * How persons living at the same address in Georgetown but are placed on different divisional lists; * Why it has not yet conducted a physical verification of the discovery of 18 electors at one address; * The discovery of 10 persons listed at an address at Prospect, East Bank Demerara, which is an unoccu-

pied empty lot “overgrown” with bushes; * The listing of approximately 2,958 persons, although the deceased are still included on the PLE. Surujbally was emphatic in rejecting what he termed “ill-advised” accusations against the Commission and its Secretariat, over the last few weeks. “While we are not speculating about why X, Y and Z are being done, we do have the right, a duty and an obligation to tell this nation the truth and bare naked the falsehoods and unprovoked innuendoes which seem to

have as a sole objective to blemish the image and credibility which we at GECOM have so painstakingly and with much effort nurtured over the years,” he said. The GECOM Chairman added that the “ill-advised accusations have been unremitting,” despite the fact that GECOM’s ‘A Team’ has prepared for and mastered elections that have contributed to improving the election processes of emerging democracies elsewhere. CORRECTING DISCREPANCIES He also asserted that the

areas of criticism that have been raised are unacceptable, unwarranted and undeserved, but also gave the assurance that GECOM is working to correct whatever discrepancies, externally or internally, that exist. The General Secretary has since maintained that the PPP will oppose any and every attempt to manipulate the voters’ list from any quarter. “The PPP will continue to check the list diligently to ensure it is clean and transparent so that every eligible Guyanese can exercise their franchise,” Rohee said.

Rohee says GECOM must ensure staff Rohan ‘Janko’ recruitment is transparent process Teekaram to face THE General Secretary of the People’s Progressive Party, Mr. Clement Rohee, called on the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) yesterday to ensure that all its ap-

pointments for temporary or permanent staff are done in a transparent and open manner. “Staff was hired to work without any advertisement. The ROs (regional offi-

cers) in the various regions were allowed to handpick staff (of) their liking. Many of the appointments were done based on family and friendship relations,” Rohee charged during a press conference held at Freedom House on Robb Street. He said this concern was raised after People’s Progressive Party (PPP) scrutineers had, on several instances, refused to participate in effecting questionable transactions, yet GECOM officials had gone ahead and placed the particulars of such persons on the Register. He said, “The Party has noted the mutterings in certain quarters that the registration process is scrutinised by party scrutineers. This notwithstanding, it must be stated for the record that there were several instances where PPP scrutineers refused to participate in effecting questionable transactions, yet GECOM officials went

ahead and placed the particulars of such persons on the Register.” Rohee stressed that this issue has left the party at odds with GECOM staffers. “The PPP is upset with the attitude and behaviour of some of the persons appointed by GECOM to work at GECOM Registration Offices,” he said. He added that the ruling party has written to GECOM highlighting many of these issues, but little or no action has been taken by that Commission. “The PPP wishes to state that it will not be intimidated by anyone. GECOM has its responsibility, and it is obligated to investigate reports made by political parties, since it is these parties which contest elections, and not GECOM,” he said. Contrary to the erroneous assumptions being peddled, Rohee concluded, the ruling party has not lost confidence in its scrutineers.

High Court trial for sibling’s murder By Geeta Rampersaud F O RT Y- T W O - Y E A R OLD, Rohan ‘Janko’ Teekaram of Kaneville, East Bank Demerara was yesterday committed to stand trial at the October sitting of the Demerara Assizes for the murder of his brother, Dayaram Teekaram, allegedly committed between April 20 and 22 last at Kaneville, EBD. Rohan ‘Janko’ Teekaram was not required to plead to the indictable offence of murder, but yesterday he elected to given an unsworn statement from the dock after the Chief Magistrate had given him three options to choose from: give a sworn statement, give an unsworn statement, or remain silent. Having opted to give an unsworn statement, Teekaram did so from the dock, and was not asked any ques-

tions by the Chief Magistrate or the Prosecutor. He told the court his side of the story, and said he did not wish to call any witness to testify in his defence. The unrepresented accused, a labourer by profession, was informed by the Chief Magistrate that a prima facie case had been made out against him, and there is sufficient evidence for him to stand trial at the High Court. A police press release had said that, around 06:30hrs on Tuesday April 22, 2014, the body of 40-year-old Dayaram Teekaram had been found in the yard of his home at Kaneville with several suspected chop wounds. Neighbours said they heard the brothers arguing on Sunday night, but it was not immediately clear when Teekaram had been chopped.

Meteorite leaves Extra security at crater in Nicaraguan PoS prison capital Managua (BBC News) A SMALL meteorite landed near the international airport in the Nicaraguan capital, Managua, on Saturday night, government officials say. Residents reported hearing a loud bang and feeling the impact, which left a crater 12m (40ft) wide and 5m deep. Government spokeswoman Rosario Murillo said the meteorite seemed to have broken off an asteroid which was passing close to Earth. She said international experts had been called in to investigate further. No-one was hurt when it hit the wooded area near the international airport and an air force base. An adviser to Nicaragua’s Institute of Earth Studies (Ineter), Wilfried

The impact left a crater 12m (40ft) wide and 5.5m deep

Strauch, said he was “convinced it was a meteorite” which caused the impact. Experts studying the crater said it was not clear whether the meteorite had disintegrated upon impact or had been blasted into soil. Locals said they heard a large blast just before midnight local time and reported a burning smell. “We thought it was a

bomb because we felt an expansive wave,” Jorge Santamaria told Associated Press news agency. Ineter scientist Jose Millan said that “we need to celebrate the fact that it fell in an area where, thank God, it didn’t cause any danger to the population”. Managua, which has more than a million inhabitants is densely populated.

World Bank says climate change significantly affecting Caribbean beaches (CMC) THE World Bank says due to rising sea levels and recurring storms, the beaches in most Caribbean countries have started to disappear. In a new report, the Washington-based financial institution said, in some areas of St Vincent and the

Grenadines, for instance, an estimated 18 to 30 meters of beach have been lost over the past nine years. According to the World Bank, the highly vulnerable coastal strand and adjacent towns are fighting against increased flood risk from rainfall and storm surge.

The World Bank says beaches are not the only concern, as Caribbean ports are also at risk from rising sea levels. The bank is urging that Caribbean land planning be incorporated more into social programmes to tackle people’s exposure to risks.

UWI support for girls’ centres (Newsday) THE Institute for Gender and Development Studies (IGDS) at The University of the West Indies (UWI) St Augustine Campus has endorsed government’s recent decision to allocate $23 million to construct two Girls Empowerment Centres in Trinidad and Tobago. Minister of Gender, Youth and Child Development, Clifton De Coteau, last month announced that Cabinet had approved construction of a number of facilities for girls. Of the total amount, the minister indicated that $23

million had been ear-marked for the construction of two “youth empowerment centres targeted toward females.” One facility will be in the north while the other will be in south Trinidad. “The Institute joins the Network of NGOs for the Advancement of Women in celebrating this initiative which it believes will add significantly toward enhancing the status and well-being of at-risk girls and juvenile delinquents,” the IGDS said in a media release. “It is believed that such centres would certainly

benefit the currently sparse resources and limited number of secure spaces for rehabilitation necessary for empowering young people who are at risk and re- integrating them successfully into society,” the institute added. The IGDS remains willing to share its expertise in conducting research or policy implementation required in this area, standing firm in its commitment to achieving gender equality and equity for citizens young and old and applauding initiatives that enable these goals.

(Trinidad Guardian) SECURITY at the Port-ofSpain State Prison has been ramped up following reports of a planned mass prison break by inmates at the facility. Senior prison sources said yesterday that the Prison Service’s executive began implementing the measures in early August, after receiving information that some of the inmates were planning a breakout as part of the ongoing protest against their lengthy detentions due to delays in the criminal justice system.

The T&T Guardian understands that the new measures include the posting of armed prison officers in marked vehicles in front the gates of the prison at nights to quickly apprehend prisoners in the event of an escape. Frequent searches of cells for surplus clothing, which prisoners often use to tie together to create a makeshift ladder to scale the high prison walls, are also being carried out. Prison officers are also periodically testing the structural integrity of the outdated cell gates at the over 200-year-old facility, and looking for signs

of damage from hacksaw blades which are often smuggled into the prison. The T&T Guardian was also told that the over 500 inmates currently housed at the facility were recently taken to the open air area, where the prison’s supervisors informed them of their knowledge of the plan and warned them to forget about executing it. “People may not take this seriously but they should. Many of these prisoners are in there for violent crimes and if they succeed it will be mayhem out here,” the source said.

Nurturing children should be a holistic effort THE nation grieved over the pictures of slain babies in Lusignan. The nation grieved over the slain young UG graduate in Bartica and Corporal Zakeer, along with all those murdered. The nation has grieved over the years over those persons that were kidnapped and slain. The nation also grieved for the mothers of the victims and the children left as orphans. But what about the grief in a mother’s heart for the young men (dubbed as bandits, criminals and murderers) who were slain while still relatively young – cut down in their prime during their criminal and even murderous forays. But they are termed bandits. Evidence points to their ruthless maiming and killing of innocent peo-

ple. But who are the real culprits? Who are really responsible for these young lives having gone so badly astray that they have literally reached the point of no-return? Who pointed these impressionable children (or young men/women) in the direction that they took? Who impressed upon them that a gun instead of a pen or a hoe and a fork could take them out of a penurious life? Who is really guilty of the blood of these children? From time immemorial children have grown up in abject poverty without turning to crime. West Indian fathers have a track record of spawning numerous offspring like animals and then abandoning them; and mothers have always, with a rare exception, arrogated

to themselves the mantle of total parenthood. I know of children who honour their mothers on both Mother ’s Day and Father’s Day, because their moms undertook both roles, and most often the elder siblings have helped in the care of the younger ones. However, the church and the entire community always took an active role in supervising and in the care of children abandoned by fathers while mothers worked. Formerly no child could have gone astray in any community without the elders collectively chastising him/her until he or she returned to the straight and narrow path. What happened to the elders of the respective communities that they could not, as a collective, guide these children into

the light? How could anyone not recognise that these young men were going astray when they first began to act in ways inimical to their own interests and the interests of the wider society? Even the notorious Rondel ‘Fine Man’ Rawlins was the young son of a loving mother, who lamented that she brought him up to respect the Lord. What drove him in the direction where he became Guyana’s “Most Wanted”? Along with caches of arms and ammunition police almost always discover Bibles when they raided the camps of the criminal gangs. These young people believe in the Lord, so they have not gone that far away from their mother’s teachings, so how does

one with any rationality equate their cold-heartedly blasting a father, a mother, a baby to death unless someone whom they have trusted persuaded them that this is the right thing to do? And why aren’t there programmes within the educational, religious, and societal systems effective enough to guide these children into making the right choices? Single mothers are often overwhelmed and oftentimes lose control over their own as well as their children’s lives, so why was an entire community indifferent when these mothers needed help to guide their

children in the right direction? The mothers of these young men, if they were mothers trying their best to take care of their children in dire circumstances, instead of guiding them down wrong pathways should not hang their heads in shame, because such mothers everywhere try their utmost for their children. They have not failed as mothers as much as we have failed collectively as a nation. The blood of the innocent is on the hands of those who guided the hands of these children to pick up the guns.

Emancipation is freedom from ‘forced’ labour, not freedom from labour I WALKED into my staff room and proudly proclaimed “I am an emancipated Negro I must not work.” Everyone looked at me with puzzled gazes, possibly thinking what in the world has gone wrong with this man? In fact the question was asked by one of my associates, “Mr. Adams, are you alright?” My reply was: “I am alright, but I maintain that I must not work.” This is the crucial point of my discourse today. Once a certain ethnic group of persons were freed it was their erroneous view that work, as we know it, should be a thing of the past. The newfound philosophy

was that they were not required to direct their energies at anything strenuous to earn a living, but to focus on the attainments of others and get it “by any means necessary.” This is the philosophy of many a Black youth in Guyana today. So when we visit the scene of another gruesome robbery, it is that the perpetrators of such heinous crimes are operating under the notion that it is their right to take what the rich has. They should not be “workers” but, as they put it, “takers” of what others possess. Now, this is not an overnight thought of theirs, but rather, it is one that was fostered by some in the so

called “educated community.” This group of persons preach the doctrine of emancipation, whereby Black youths should be a bunch of “not working kings and queens,” walking around aimlessly in an empire that their ancestors built. And whenever things go wrong which it surely will - in that community, then they blame it on the other race (in this case Indians) because it is their fault that this has befallen them. This is the new emancipation story written and directed by Hinds and company. I cry shame on all those who foster such ideas of laziness amongst the people or peddle the idea that the race

ought to look grudgingly on the wealth of others. I say shame on you for mentally enslaving our youth. These dwarf-like and decrepit ideas will only lead to more hatred and murder, as we so often see. In fact, what these people are not telling you is that the strides made by the freed men soon after slavery is phenomenal, whole villagers were bought with the proceeds of hard labour and frugal saving. We were the forerunners of the co-operative movement pooling our monies together in “box hand” each one helping the other to achieve their goal. This is what epitomised Black communi-

ties all across Guyana, not the modern day gun-toting, non-ambitious banditry that is often perpetuated. We were and still are a proud Black race. However, somewhere, somehow a sizable group of us lost our way in the new-found gun culture. Their minds became enveloped in an eddying whirlpool of foolishness that brings shame and disgrace to the race. I do hope that, with the reading of this article; that those trapped in that mode get out of it before it is too late. Some of the lyrics of Brother Marley speaks to this fact “emancipate yourself from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free

our minds.” People of the ilk of Hinds and company probably sing and dance to this popular ballad without paying one iota of attention to its educated lyrics. The song is calling for an “emancipation of our minds,” something up until now Hinds and company cannot fathom. So the next time this song is played I wish some folks gain the inspiration that is required and lift themselves to a higher level of existence. Emancipation is freedom from forced labour, not freedom from labour, as is erroneously taught by some. NEIL ADAMS

Minister Sukhai reassures Amerindians of Govt’s confidence in their ability to manage their affairs OVER the last two decades, Government has been significantly investing in the lives of Amerindians, implementing policies and programmes aimed at enhancing their individual lives and transforming village economy. However, persons have been criticising Government in this regard, and questioning whether the Amerindians are capable of managing funds provided to them. During the commissioning of the first project to be completed under the Low

Carbon Development Strategy (LCDS), Guyana Redd + Investment Fund, (GRIF) on Saturday at Santa Aratack village, Region Three, Minister of Amerindian Affairs Pauline Sukhai reassured Amerindians of Government’s confidence in investing in their lives. “I want to assure you that the Government has full confidence in the Amerindian people and their leaders and that is why we have continued over the last two decades to ensure that resources the country has for expending on devel-

opment projects across our country, that we have ensured that Amerindians benefit,” Minister Sukhai noted. This project, ‘The Santac Tours and Travel’ is one of 27 which received funding last year during the first phase of implementation of the Community Development Plans (CDPs). The project is intended to secure livelihood options for Amerindians in approximately 180 communities. Minister Sukhai noted that this is evidence that Amerindians have the ability

to manage the resources that are being made available to them. “It is resounding evidence and a call for other villages to follow suit, and it is also evidence to those who feel that investment funds placed in Amerindians’ hands go to waste. I sit at various meetings and there are questions on whether the indigenous people are capable of spending funds provided for them... It just goes to show that people do not have

confidence in the investment government is making in the lives of Amerindians,” Minister Sukhai stressed.

Speaking on eco-tourism, Minister Sukhai said Amerindians should take the lead in this regard and make use of the area’s potential. The CDP is expected to be a catalyst for transforming village economy. “This will also send a strong message to those who, over the last three years, tried to stymie the level of funding that is geared to reach the Amerindians…there continues to be an attack on the government with respect to all the developments thus far that we have been able to roll out to our people, Minister Sukhai added. National Toshaos Council (NTC) Chair, Derrick John noted that the Santa Aratack

project shows that the Amerindians have the ability to utilise funding wisely. “People may think that Amerindian people do not have the capacity to implement and manage funds. I am very disgusted as the NTC chair when I hear these things… we are capable enough to execute the projects that are given to us, we will continue to promote, utilise and make the best use of all these resources that are being made available to us,” NTC Chair said. He expressed gratitude to the Government for its continuous support and investment in the lives of the Amerindian people. (GINA)

Porter, driver lose millions during Sparendaam police stop and search By Leroy Smith POLICE are looking high and low for clues that would help them to determine how a bag containing about two million dollars vanished from a Canter truck while the driver and porter were being questioned by them during a stop and search operation yesterday. The incident reportedly took place in front of the Sparendaam Police Station on the East Coast of Demerara while traffic ranks were doing routine checks. However, the Guyana Chronicle was informed that although the incident occurred right in front of the Sparendaam Police Station,

it was not reported at that police station by the occupants of the truck. They drove approximately forty miles, passing two other police stations and one outpost, to report the matter at the Cove and John Police Station which houses the Headquarters of the Police ‘C’ Division. It is not clear if the men immediately after re-entering the vehicle discovered the money missing or while on their way further up the East Coast. The porter of the truck reportedly told investigators that while the driver of the Canter was being questioned by the police about the papers for the truck, two men approached him as he remained seated in the vehicle

and told him that the police also needed him so he exited the vehicle and went to the police. The man said that the two men who approached him were wearing shirt jacs and identified themselves as police officers. Speaking with this newspaper, one senior police source said that at the time the operation was being conducted in front of the Sparendaam Police Station, when the men claimed that the money went missing, there were no ranks from the Criminal Investigation Department who were attached to that police station present. CID ranks are often seen wearing shirt jacs. All the CID ranks ac-

Man charged with possession of forged US currency granted $50,000 bail By Geeta Rampersaud TWENTY-FIVE-YEAROLD, Joshua Adams of Lot 63 North East Sophia, Greater Georgetown appeared yesterday before Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry, charged with unlawful possession of forged currency and uttering forged currency. The labourer pleaded guilty to both charges, the first of which alleged that

on Friday, September 5, at South Ruimveldt, Georgetown, without lawful authority, he had in his possession one forged US$100 bill, number HB18068205D. The other charge said that on the same day, at South Ruimveldt, Georgetown, he uttered to Mariska Adams one forged US$100 bill, number HB18068205D, knowing same to be false. Adams told the court he had obtained the money

from his uncle, and that at the time he did not know that the currency was counterfeit. A not guilty plea was recorded on his behalf in relation to that charge. Police Prosecutor Michal Grant did not object to bail, so the defendant, not having any prior conviction or pending matter, was ordered bail at the cost of $25,000 on each charge, and the cases were put off to September 26 for statements.

cording to the source were present at a meeting with the new divisional detective who was sent to take up duties in the division yesterday.

In addition the description given by the porter to the police does not match that of any other rank working at the Sparendaam Police

Rohee says PPP wasn’t given PLE to ‘kiss it in a closed room’ - but to scrutinize in order to promote transparency in the electoral system

By Ravin Singh GENERAL Secretary of the ruling People’s Progressive Party, Clement Rohee yesterday said that his party was not given the Preliminary List of Electors (PLE) to “kiss it in a closed room”, but rather to scrutinize so as to promote transparency in the electoral system of Guyana. Rohee made this statement yesterday at his Party’s weekly press conference held at Freedom House where he also made a call for GECOM to “think seriously about changing the laws” that govern the removal of dead people from the PLE since the mechanism currently in place is one which allows the possibility of having thousands of dead people still registered as those who can vote. VOTING FOR THE DEAD According to Rohee, the country has experienced historically, “people voting for the dead”, and permitting a

list which comprises thousands of dead people still exposes the possibility of such a reoccurrence. Rohee further emphasised the point that the legitimate concerns raised by his party were meant to promote the release of a list which mirrors transparency in the electoral system. He added that “I think it is wrong and in fact disrespectful if Mr. Surujbally is telling the PPP that we must accept a list that has hundreds, if not thousands of dead people,” adding that “we cannot accept that.” “We have done our part, we have provided what we have found to GECOM and that was the reason we were given the list. We weren’t given the list to kiss it in a closed room. We were given the list to go out on the ground and check it again,” he declared, noting that this is what the PPP has done. Commenting on the mechanism in place for removing dead people from the list, Rohee urged that GECOM will have to think seriously about changing

the laws since it allows for dead people to still appear on the PLE. He noted that if persons fail to register a

GENERAL Secretary Clement Rohee death of a family member through the General Register Office (GRO), no notice can be issued to GECOM for the removal of that person from the list. As a result, this allows for dead people to still appear on the list even though it is known that they are deceased. “If for example there is incontrovertible evidence that this person is dead, buried,

that there was weeping and wailing at the funeral loudly that you could hear houses away, yet the death was not registered, there is nothing that the GRO could send to the GECOM Commission to invite them to take that name off the list,” Rohee said, hinting at the appearance of former President Arthur Chung’s name on the list even though the entire country is aware that he is dead. The PPP is therefore questioning whether the party “must accept” a list as the current one which contains thousands of dead people and allows for the possibility of “people voting for the dead.” The Party is also urging that the Chairman of GECOM and his team of experts “find a way out of this.” Earlier in the week, Dr. Surujbally noted that “Removing the deceased from the National Register of Registrants is not something you do flippantly,” adding that from January 2008 to April 2014 a total of 12,404 names had been sent to GECOM and flagged as deceased; so they

are not included in the PLE. Dr. Surujbally added that GECOM is engaged in reviewing this process. “We have had talks with the GRO on several occasions,” he said. According to him, once the review is completed, the Commission expects to forward a proposal to the various stakeholders for inputs and approval. He said that “Considerations when we review the policy can include establishing essential coordinates, which can be agreed upon by all - for example if only a lot number is missing from the data provided by the GRO, in the past, I’m sorry. “…some of the Commissioners have said that at this stage when we have done so well we can possibly relax a bit, we can establish even margins of acceptable error, or we can proactively interact with the police, hospitals, and funeral parlours to ascertain a death.” The Commission’s Chairman added that the current procedures employed to remove names of deceased persons from national elec-

tors’ lists are similar to what is done in most Caribbean Community (CARICOM) member states. He highlighted too that this issue was the subject of discussion at the last meeting of the Association of Caribbean Electoral Organisations (ACEO). Dr. Surujbally said, “That topic was very much discussed and all participating EMBs (Election Management Bodies) recognised the problematic nature of the issue and agreed that you cannot willy-nilly remove people from the voters’ list. “Nevertheless, even in situations where distrust is highly pronounced, it is possible to introduce criteria, which could remove names of people who are genuinely deceased, without actually having documentation from the GRO.” According to him, he is also in talks with regional counterparts in addressing this issue. “When we have everything we can draft regulations to anchor those proposals,” he concluded.

Shooting of Constable Leroy English…

Policemen were performing protection duties for Brazilian businessman By Leroy Smith THE police Office of Professional Responsibility is continuing investigations into the shooting of Constable Leroy English who was shot to the right hand and foot by a colleague in friendly fire last Wednesday. The Guyana Chronicle inadvertently stated that Constable Jeffers was the police rank who shot English and this publication apologises to the rank for that unfortunate error and regrets any inconvenience it may have caused him. While Rural Constable Jeffers who is stationed in ‘A’ Division was one of the police ranks on the scene of the shooting that night, he was also the person who rushed to the rescue of Constable English after he was hit in a hail of bullets fired in his direction. New information reaching the Guyana Chronicle from a source close to the investigation revealed that there are some six police ranks, including rural constables, who are

under investigation in the incident. Information also suggested that on the night of the incident when the young Da Silva telephoned his father, a businessman, to inform him of the unmarked cars that were chasing him, his father in turn informed a group of policemen about the development and they raced to the location. The Chronicle learnt that the police who were contacted by the businessman about the situation are paid by the businessman to look after his security interests and would act as bodyguards for him and his family whenever they are not on active duty. On the night of the incident the police ranks who were contacted by the businessman turned up at the scene and, according to the information reaching this newspaper, recognised that the persons who were chasing the businessman’s son were police officers. They, however, began firing shots in the direction of English who is stationed on the

West Bank of Demerara, and is not familiar to them. They apparently took the rank for a bandit even as Jeffers repeatedly cautioned them that the person they were turning their guns on was a police officer. The rank who was identified as the person who shot English is said to be a rank stationed in ‘A’ Division. In addition, on the same night that the Constable English approached the vehicle of the businessman’s son at the Demerara Harbour Bridge and identified himself with his badge even as the windows to the vehicle remained up, a police rank was seated in the vehicle acting in a security capacity for the younger Da Silva. It was reported that after the policeman who was seated in Da Silva’s vehicle realised that the person who was chasing the vehicle and who approached their vehicle was indeed a policeman, the decision was made to drive the vehicle through the Demerara Harbour Bridge cordon in an attempt by the policeman

to conceal his moonlighting activities. When the high speed chase ended up on the East Bank of Demerara it was there that the senior Da Silva showed up shortly after his off duty police security detail had already fired shots in their bid to protect the son of the businessman. On Wednesday morning, police ranks travelling along the West Bank of Demerara gave chase after the young Da Silva’s vehicle after it was being driven in a dangerous manner that almost caused the death of another police rank who moments earlier had stepped out of the vehicle in which he and a senior police officer were travelling. On Thursday Police Commissioner (ag), Seelall Persaud said that the reports surrounding the shooting of the constable were very confusing and the matter was being investigated. He said that the police will comment on the matter when all the facts are clearly available to the force.

Old Kai: Chronicles of Guyana…

AFC fronting again that it can win an election in Guyana - but it is impossible for voters to forgive the party

IN what appears to be the start of the elections season, the AFC is busy trying to create some amount of hype which masks an eerie sort of panic that is gradually creeping into their ranks. It is like going in to write an exam when you know you were careless during classes and did not study at all. After they won seven seats in the National Assembly following the last elections, the party’s presidential candidate, Khemraj Ramjattan, while addressing a Congress of the People conference in Trinidad shortly after had praised Guyana’s electoral system and pointed out that the AFC had only won 10% of the votes but still enjoyed such a significant representation in the Parliament. This, he noted, would not have been possible in Trinidad and Tobago as was the fate experienced by the COP. Ramjattan had also revealed that the AFC had never expected to win the election. Therefore, it was clear from the outset that all the promises being made by the party in the lead up to the last elections were nothing but an attempt to dupe citizens into voting for them as they had already knew they would not be elected and thus not have to keep their end of the bargain. This is confirmed by the fact that even though the AFC and APNU enjoyed a combined one seat majority in the National Assembly, the small party made absolutely no effort to use the National Assembly to honour its promises. As reality began to dawn on their supporters, many became disenchanted and left the AFC. An independent poll conducted earlier this year had indicated that the party has lost as much as 50% of its supporters. This is a startling number for any party, much less such a small political organisation which is still fairly new in Guya-

nese politics. Therefore, the biggest worry for the AFC currently is if it can ever get back that 10% it gained at the last elections. The alarm bells would have been set off when the party recently hosted a political meeting at Port Mourant, Corentyne, where Moses Nagamootoo resides. In the last elections, Moses had just left the PPP and was making a number of accusations and placing himself

‘…as with anything, the passage of time has proved an eye opener. Moses is now seen for what he has been accused of all along, a power obsessed individual who conveniently portrays a concern for the ordinary man, simply to achieve his ends.’ as the victim. Many sympathised with him and when the AFC held a meeting in this very community, quite a large number of persons came out to support them purely on the basis of the crocodile tears of ‘Naga’. But as with anything, the passage of time has proved an eye opener. Moses is now seen for what he has been accused of all along, a power obsessed individual who conveniently portrays a concern for the ordinary man, simply to achieve his ends. The fact that he and the AFC had not only criticised every effort by the PPP/C Government to support the sugar industry but had also called for the industry be closed, came as a shocker for those who had believed his version of events up to that point. This was most evident when the AFC returned to

Nagamoottoo, Hughes ticket surprising by Oscar Ramjeet THE proposed Moses Nagamootoo -Nigel Hughes ticket for the Alliance For Change (AFC) in the next general elections seems to be baffling not only to the general public, but even to supporters of the AFC. I spoke to several of them in Berbice on Sunday and they were surprised at the statement made by the party's leader, Khemraj Ramjattan, who hails from No. 47 Village on the Corentyne. I note with concern that the movement was formed by former executive member of the PNC, Raphael Trotman and Ramjattan, who was a top brass and central executive member of the PPP/C. What is the reason why these two founders are no longer at the helm? Nagamootoo who grew up with the PPP said time and time again that the party founder leader, Dr. Cheddi Jagan, had identified him to take over the party after his demise, but Jagan's widow, Janet, thought otherwise and handpicked Bharrat Jagdeo, a young man who was not in the trenches like Moses, Navin Chandrapaul, and others. From reports, the top brass of the AFC is considering whether to merge with APNU to oppose the PPP/C at the next general elections. They have to make a decision as soon as possible because this has to be done before elections. A large number of their supporters prefer them to join ranks with the governing PPP/C party, and a few intend to make representation to the party leadership in this regard. A large number of persons in Region Six are dissatisfied with the AFC and there is an indication that the party will not secure as many votes as they did at the last general elections. The PPP/C will have to work hard to get the support of these voters because some of them have expressed the view that they will not exercise their franchise. Some AFC supporters referred to Raphael Trotman, the first leader, who refused to make way for Ramjattan as agreed, and asked why should they follow a party where the leaders do not stick to principles. They also make comments about Nagamootoo who they said is a very hard worker, but feel he has "an axe to grind" against the PPP/C leadership. The Nagamootoo-Hughes ticket has raised serious discussions in Berbice and no doubt the entire country and one wonders what is the next move of the third party.

Port Mourant as pointed out earlier. However, this time around the crowd was not there to greet or listen to them. There were less than a handful of small pockets of individuals milling around. Some of the AFC leaders looked puzzled but they should not have been, as if they had paid attention to the NACTA poll published in March this year rather than at- Moses Nagamootoo tacking its credibility, they would have realised that the political undercurrent was gradually changing. Here it was in the hometown of Moses Nagamootoo, there was less than 50 persons, and yet still many of those were AFC leaders and support staff. Why this dramatic fall in support in the space of three years? They did absolutely nothing for the average Guyanese and opposed all such efforts by the PPP/C Government and for this, it is impossible for voters to forgive them.

El Nino advisory…

Agriculture Minster: Guyana in ‘conservation’ period

GUYANA has had less than normal levels of rain this year, according to the Minister of Agriculture, Dr. Leslie Ramsammy, who added that the agriculture sector is in a “conservation” period. “We are in conservation period. Every ounce of water at this time is critical, because in spite of people joking about El Nino, this is a real issue,” he said, adding that the El Nino advisory should be taken seriously. Dr. Ramsammy noted that Guyana has had some rain, but in comparison with previous years, the rainfall has been reduced. “It is true we have had some rain; we have had rain in periods we did not expect rain. The May/June rains were not as much as we expected, but then in July/ August we had more rain…still it was less rain compared to the previous year,” he said. According to him, any unnecessary release of water from the conservancy is ill advised and all farmers should take the necessary precautions. The Ministry of Agriculture, after consultation with its Hydro-Meteorological Office and taking into consideration predictions from various regional and international forecasting and weather agencies, in May, issued an El Nino Watch. Additionally, in late April, the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) warned countries that the possibility of a severe El Nino must be heeded. Climatologists and weather forecasters predicted an El Nino for the Americas, starting in July, and intensifying towards October and December. The prediction, as of this time is that it could be a serious El Nino with severe droughts in many parts of the Americas. Guyana has been a victim and continues to be a victim of climate change, but has taken steps to adapt to the challenges. (Vanessa Narine)

APNU blasted…

PPP bent on ensuring a clean Preliminary List of Electors

THE General Secretary of the ruling party yesterday blasted the main Opposition, A Partnership for National Unity (APNU), highlighting that the People’s National Congress (PNC), a major component of the APNU coalition, has never won free and fair elections in Guyana. To this end, Rohee made it clear that the People’s Progressive Party (PPP) will continue its scrutiny of the electors’ list to ensure it is a “clean and transparent” list that does not disenfranchise any eligible voter in Guyana. He was speaking during a press conference held at Freedom House, Robb Street. The General-Secretary said, “The PPP has stood steadfast to the age-old principle of supporting the right of every eligible Guyanese to be involved in the electoral process. From its victory in achieving universal adult suffrage in 1953 - that is the right of every eligible Guyanese to exercise the franchise and later to vote at the age of 21; and the right much later to vote at the age of 18 in national elections, the PPP to this day will continue to ensure that every eligible voter is listed and

CARICOM consults on draft legislation for the CSME

THE Caribbean Community (CARICOM) continues its drive to establish a single economic space through the CARICOM Single Market and Economy (CSME) with the opening of a regional consultation to consider draft model legislation to address legislative gaps common to all Member States, yesterday, in Barbados. The two-day consultation, hosted by the CARICOM Secretariat, aims to ensure that there is harmonised legislation across Member States, compliant with CARICOM Single Market regimes. The initiative is funded with assistance from the Canadian Government under the CARICOM Trade and Competitiveness Project (CTCP). Leading up to this regional consultation, national consultations on the draft legislation were conducted from April to July 2014 in CARICOM Member States. Consultancy support provided by ACE International Consultants in collaboration with UWI Consulting and Nex resulted in draft model legislation, to correct the gaps found in Member States. Some of the legislative areas being reviewed are the CARICOM Skilled Nationals Act; the Movement of Factors Act, and the Immigration Acts of Member States. Seven drafts will be tabled for discussion. The revised drafts will be considered by the Community’s Ministerial Organs before being adopted as model CARICOM legislation by the Legal Affairs Committee. Senior legal officers and other relevant personnel from CARICOM Member States will participate in the regional consultation today. The Community Strategic Plan identifies the implementation and use of the CARICOM Single Market and Economy as fundamental to the achievement of sustained economic development for the Caribbean Community.

those not eligible are removed from the list.” He also commented on the now completed Claims and Objections Period, and commended the party’s activists and supporters at all levels of the party’s structure for the commitment and dedication displayed in executing the house to house checks on the Preliminary List of Electors. Rohee said, “We are proud of our activists for identifying the large number of particulars of deceased persons and those of persons listed on the PLE (Preliminary List of Electors) at addresses where they could not be located. “Their efforts have assisted the Party in submitting 2,438 objections on the grounds of persons being deceased. We were able to secure the evidence for these deceased persons, and 2,265 on the grounds of persons “not found” at the time of visits and checks with persons living in close proximity to the stated address on the PLE.” The inclusion of deceased persons on the PLE was one of several concerns raised by the party, concerns that have since

been responded to by the Chairman of the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM), Dr. Steve Surujbally. The Commission’s Chairman responded to the ruling party’s concerns point-by-point and addressed areas that included: * The increase of almost 80,000 voters on the Preliminary List of Electors (PLE); * How persons living at the same address in Georgetown are placed on different divisional lists; * Why it has not yet conducted a physical verification of the discovery of 18 electors at one address; and * The discovery of 10 persons listed at an address at Prospect, East Bank Demerara, which is an unoccupied empty lot “overgrown” with bushes; among other issues. The PPP General Secretary reiterated that efforts in expressing the party’s concerns were to ensure a clean and transparent PLE. “The PPP will oppose any and every attempt to manipulate the voters’ list from any quarter,” he said.

Cunha Canal is an approved GRIF project THE Cunha Canal, which will bolster the operations of the East Demerara Water Conservancy (EDWC) Northern Relief Channel, remains on the table, and Agriculture Minister, Dr. Leslie Ramsammy disclosed that it is now an approved Guyana REDD+ Investment Fund (GRIF) project. The Cunha Canal Rehabilitation Project is also intended to improve relief drainage in the East Demerara Water Conservancy (EDWC) that is envisaged to reduce Guyana’s vulnerability to the catastrophic flooding of its low-lying coastal areas. “As part of GRIF, the project has been approved,” he said, in an invited comment, noting that GRIF’s partners include Norway and the World Bank, which is the trustee of the GRIFF monies. According to him, in addition to financing, a second hurdle to the project has also been crossed, that of reaching an agreement with Barama Company Limited. In the 1990’s, the Cunha Canal was filled to accommodate the Barama office, a move that has been dubbed a “strategic mistake” by the Agriculture Minister, since it created a major problem

Following the approval of the PCN, the World Bank, which is the partner entity for this project, conducted two missions to Guyana in July and November 2012, to review the proposed project activities and costs; implementation arrangements; results indicators; procurement and financial management arrangements; safeguards; and technical aspects, with a view to preparing and completing the full project document. The World Bank estimates the total project cost at US$2.5M.(Vanessa Narine)

Minister calls for ‘less time squabbling and pointing fingers’ ... in countrywide clean-up

By Derwayne Wills MINISTER of Natural Resources and the Environment, Mr. Robert Persaud, has called for the mass involvement of all stakeholders as the $1B ‘Clean-Up My Country Programme’ draws to its climax. At a recent meeting of the Technical Committee of the ‘Clean-Up My Country Programme,’ the Natural Resources Minister expressed a need to pool efforts and resources to “ensure that this initiative of the Government is not only successfully implemented, but also sustained.” The ‘Clean-Up My Country Programme’ is an inter-agency initiative spearheaded by the Local Government Ministry with the involvement of the Natural Resources Ministry, the Environmental Protection Agency, and the Georgetown City Council, among other stakeholders. VOLUNTEERISM Minister Persaud said that with the activities coming under the programme, focus ought to be placed on the need for “volunteerism.” “We need to bring volunteerism early, not only at the end of the activity to look at sustainability, but volunteerism in terms of involving communities [and] community leaders.” According to him, the project should similarly see the involvement of religious bodies, NGOs [non-governmental organisations], and youth clubs, “because the communities in which these works are being undertaken belong to the people who reside there.” Making a strong case, the Minister added: “All of us share that we want this programme to be effective [and] sustainable. I think all of us recognise that the condition, particularly of our capital city and elsewhere, is a national embarrassment.” He added: “This is an opportunity for us to do something about it, and to spend less time squabbling and pointing fingers. It is also their (the people’s) responsibility to want to contribute to the type of work, not only in identification, but also in implementation and monitoring.” After expressing his opinion on the need for more across-

the-board involvement of stakeholders, the Minister urged the implementation body to act speedily on the advice given. REGULATION ENFORCEMENT Persaud said the involvement of all the local government bodies is crucial in regard to enforcement. He expressed disgust at a citizen who was observed recklessly disposing of his garbage in a canal that had been cleaned a few days ago. Minister Persaud stressed that the message of effective solid waste management has not been translated well to the citizens who sometimes seem not to want to listen. “What that shows is that we are not getting over, very effectively, the message of responsibility, of respect, and of persons recognising that they have a role,” he said, and added that there have been enforced regulations designed to deal with the current situation. These include not only litter regulations, but also the coming-to-be of the litter wardens,

“I think all of us recognise that the condition, particularly of our capital city and elsewhere, is a national embarrassment. This is an opportunity for us to do something about it and to spend less time squabbling and pointing fingers”

– Natural Resources Minister, Robert Persaud

which according to him numbered about 12 in Georgetown and 30 throughout the country. He said that the MNRE Ministry, through the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is looking to have more litter wardens sworn in, with a possibility of including current employees of other state agencies as well as NGOs and other citizens who are willing to commit to

the solution. He said this initiative stands to ensure that “enforcement” is the order of the day. Under the Litter Enforcement Regulations of the 1996 Environmental Protection Act, litter wardens are empowered to issue clean-up orders to citizens and businesses. For citizens, a fine of $15,000 is mandatory if found littering; while, in other cases, a non-compliant resident who resists the order would be expected to pay a maximum of $50,000. Recognising the role of business owners in illegal dumping by means of vagrants, a two-week order would be issued by the litter wardens, depending on the size of the garbage pile. If owners are non-compliant, an immediate fine of $100,000 applies, along with the possibility of prison time. Minister Persaud charged Minister of Natural the Local Government MinResources and the ister to ensure that all NDCs Environment, Mr. Robert Persaud and municipalities recognise their role in the current works, “if we are going to make it more effective.” Persaud expressed satisfaction with the goal of the cleanup campaign, since it allows for other agencies to invest in local government authorities in order to lend assistance. “This intervention is very critical in the sense that it allows us to inject a bit of energy to carry out works that the local government bodies and the other agencies would not be able to do, due to various constraints,” he said. He concluded that if the factors of civil society involvement and reaffirmed commitment are not taken into account, then “we would be doing a disservice, and not getting value for money.”

GECOM continues to engage political parties – Dr. Surujbally CHAIRMAN of the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM), Dr. Steve Surujbally, told the Guyana Chronicle that GECOM continues to engage political parties. “We met with AFC last Tuesday,” he said in an invited comment. In the latter part of August, the GECOM Chairman had noted that meetings with the political parties would be convened this month. “We are meeting with political parties constantly,” Dr. Surujbally said when asked about the next scheduled meeting. He maintains that it is the Commission’s policy to remain in contact with the political parties, as they are the major stakeholders in GECOM’s work.

In a prior interview, Dr Surujbally had disclosed that the issues on the agenda for meetings with the political parties could range from the tabulation exercise part of an election process, to introduction of an automated ballot system, to addressing lacunas in the legal framework, unto finalisation of demarcation of boundaries for local government elections. Of the three political parties, the ruling People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C) has been most vocal in raising concerns about the work of GECOM. The Guyana Chronicle also spoke with the GECOM Chief Elections Officer, Mr Keith Lowenfield, who stressed that GECOM would continue to communicate with all three political parties to address concerns and suggestions on different issues.

End-of-term results should determine placement of ‘Primary Tops’ students

THE Grade Nine students who completed their 2013/2014 academic year and their National Grade Nine Assessment ought to be placed at secondary schools, based on their endof-year results. This was according to Public Relations Officer of the Ministry of Education, Mrs. Suelle Findlay-Williams, who noted that this decision was forwarded to the Regional Education Officers by the Exams Division. The ‘Primary Tops’ is the common name for the secondary school extensions of primary schools, where students who underperform

at the National Grade Six Assessment (NGSA) are placed. According to the Ministry’s ‘Criteria for Placement,’ Grade Six students after the NGSA exams are placed according to marks obtained and their place of residence. The ‘Primary Tops’ include classes up to Grade Nine or Form Three, after which the students write the National Grade Nine Assessment and are afforded a chance to be placed at a secondary school. “The Grade Nine Assessment results should not affect the student,” the Ministry’s Public Relations Officer said.

However, the reality on the ground is proving somewhat different at some, if not all ‘Primary Tops’ schools. Several teachers at ‘Primary Tops’ schools, when contacted by the Guyana Chronicle, contended that up to the first week of school they had still not been notified that their students were to be placed at secondary schools based on their endof-year results. LATE RELEASE The Guyana Chronicle was prompted to query the placement of Grade Nine Stu-

dents after several teachers expressed concerns over the late release of the National Grade Nine Assessment results. According to the teachers, this is usually the basis for placement of the students at secondary schools, and when they are released late many of their students end up as drop-outs because they are not placed at secondary schools before the start of the new academic year. One teacher (who spoke to this newspaper on the condition of anonymity) said, “Last year when the students wrote the assess-

ment, their results were not released until January this year. I had a few students from my batch that had the ability to perform, but by the time we went to look for them, some of them had jobs and others were home. They had no intention of continuing with school and they had lost the entire first term of the year.” This year, the National Grade Nine Assessment results are expected to be released next month. Another teacher told the Guyana Chronicle that until they are advised by the Regional Education Department their position is a ‘wait and

see’ one. The teacher said, “We will have to wait and see in the new week if the Regional Education Department will let us know, but as right now the students who finished Grade Nine have either gotten jobs and some continue to come to school, which means they are joining the new Grade Nine class and are repeating the work they already did. This is a problem, especially in terms of discipline, because when they repeat they are not really doing anything new and they are not interested.”

SPEEDING CAUSES ANOTHER ACCIDENT THE drivers of HC 1416 and PGG 2609 were left surveying the damage done to their respective vehicles last Saturday morning at Pouderoyen, on the West Bank of Demerara, where speeding left PGG 2609 literally in a ditch. This accident represents the latest incident of dangerous driving on Guyanaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s roadways, and underscores the need for drivers to exercise greater caution to avoid seriously jeopardising life, limb and valuable property as they negotiate the roadways. Police traffic enforcement activities last year resulted in more than 107,650 cases being made against errant motorists, more than 20,443 of which were for speeding.

Teacher, taxi driver charged with murder …Mother breaks down in court room as charges read By Leroy Smith MUSIC teacher, Lennox Wayne also known as “2 colors” of Diamond Housing Scheme, East Bank Demerara and Melroy Davis of Bent Street, Wortmanville, Georgetown yesterday both appeared before Magistrate Zameena Ali in the Vigilance Magistrate’s Court where the charge of murdering Lusignan hairdresser, Ashmini Hariram on July 10, 2014 on the Lusignan Railway Embankment was read to them. The two men were not allowed to plead to the indictable charge which states that Lennox Wayne, the number one accused, along with Melroy Davis, the number two accused, committed the act which is a contradiction of

the common-law and were remanded until October 3, 2014. Wayne is said to be the triggerman while Davis is said to be the taxi driver who drove Wayne to the scene of the crime to commit the act. Following the act Davis transported Wayne back to the city while receiving the victim’s phone from Wayne which was handed over to one of the two persons who contracted the two to carry out the murderous act for a price tag of $2.5 million, which reportedly they are yet to receive. As the charges were being read in court, Wayne appeared very relaxed with a grin on his face while taxi driver Davis appeared to be a bit more worried. The mother of the dead teenager could not bear to

hear the facts of the matter being read in court to the number one accused and broke down in tears. When the magistrate began reading the facts of the matter to Davis he attempted to speak to the magistrate but was cautioned that he had the right to remain silent if he chooses. The magistrate told him that she would allow him to speak if he so desires but after the facts were read to him he changed his decision to engage the courts after being advised by a lawyer from the Legal Aid Clinic who was present in the courtroom. Both Davis and Wayne were unrepresented in court yesterday and Davis attempted to retain the Legal Aid representative as his attorney to speak on his behalf. Wayne told the court that he has two children and

works as a drumming teacher at the Magic Fingers Drumming School. He was asked if he had ever been charged before and responded in the positive, telling the court that he was charged for robbery and was sentenced to jail in 2006. Davis on the other hand was never charged before, has no children, works as a taxi driver and is not married. While being escorted to and from the courtroom, the young man hid his face from being photographed or videoed by reporters. The two accused were not wearing any handcuffs but had shackles on their feet, even as the police were on high alert. The two men were reportedly contracted by the brother-in-law of the hairdresser and an accomplice who wanted her dead after

they suspected that she had snitched on them and informed the police of a drug operation they were engaged in, causing the narcotics to be seized by law enforcement officers. Following his court appearance yesterday morning, Wayne while leaving the courtroom cautioned Davis about implicat -

ing him in the murder of the woman. Prior to that while the two were in the docks inside the courtroom Wayne remarked to Davis “boy is just like that y’all does implicate people.” He went on to threaten Davis that he would see what will happen if he should jeopardise his (Wayne’s) freedom.

Work resumes on Hope Drunken driver flees scene Canal today - Dr. Ramsammy after striking Canal Number 2 woman dead

THE remaining six weeks of work on the East Demerara Water Conservancy (EDWC) Northern Relief Channel resumes today, according to Agriculture Minister, Dr. Leslie Ramsammy. “We have six weeks work left, beginning from Tuesday (today)…I expect that on Tuesday coming, work on site will be more diligent,” he said. The contractor for the project is Courtney Benn Contracting Services (CBCS). Construction on the project began in February 2011, with an estimated 18 months for completion and the deadline for the project was initially set for June 2013, but was subsequently extended to the end of August, and then once again extended to December 31, 2013, then to June 30, 2014. The EDWC Northern Relief Channel, the Hope Canal, which missed its June 30 deadline for completion, was given a new deadline in the latter part of July, when its completion date was raised at the Parliamentary Sectoral Committee on Natural Resources and the Environment. The Agriculture Minister, when he appeared before the Committee, disclosed that the project will be com-

pleted in seven weeks, by September.

LIQUIDATED DAMAGES The Minister noted too that given the continued delays with the project, the issue of liquidated damages is not off the table. “The accommodation of the contractor does not mean that the contractor will escape liquidated damages,” he said. However, Dr. Ramsammy made it clear that the liquidated damages will not be “inflicted” on the contractor as of now, since that would mean a further delay, as late as 2015, for the completion of the project. The Agriculture Minister stressed too that the work produced by the contractor has been quality work. “The difficulty we have is the sloth of the work,” he said. “Some of the difficulties that the contractor has encountered can be resolved by the ministry, and so all we are doing is working in partnership with the contractor so that those difficulties are removed,” he said. The project has four components: the more than 10-kilometre channel, the head regulator, the eightgate sluice at the canal’s Atlantic end, and the EDWC

Northern Relief Channel Public Road Bridge. The latter was completed and commissioned in February. Dr. Ramsammy told this newspaper that the head regulator has been completed and minor works remain on the more than 10-kilometre channel, while over 80 per cent of the work on the outer sluice has been completed. Additionally, the actual testing of the functionality of the channel will have to await the availability of an adequate volume of water to fill the channel. Indications were that the US$15M Hope Canal project, which is expected to be the answer to the flooding experienced in the Mahaica/Mahaicony/Abary(MMA) areas during rainy periods, would be operational as the rainy season sets in. Residents in the MMA area over the years have lost crops and cattle in floods, during the rainy period. As seen in the past, when the Maduni sluice has to be opened to drain the East Demerara Water Conservancy, residents in the MMA area have to battle a rise in the Mahaica Creek – making the completion of the Hope Canal something that is much needed.

By Asif Hakim TWENTY–EIGHT– YEAR-OLD, Kumarie Tikaram of North Section, Canal Number 2, West Bank Demerara was struck down and killed by a car driven by a man allegedly under the influence of alcohol while she was walking along the Canal Number Two main road on Sunday night. The driver was piloting the speeding vehicle along the public thoroughfare in a haphazard manner when he hit the woman from behind, an eyewitness disclosed. After the accident, the driver fled the scene, but, minutes later, was arrested by the police at his residence, and asked to do a breathalyzer test, which found his alcohol level to be above the legal limit for drivers. He was taken into police custody to assist with the ongoing investigations. An eyewitness who spoke to the Chronicle on condition of anonynimity said he was sitting at his ‘liming spot’ while the woman was walking on her way home when he heard a vehicle coming with speed and being driven

Twenty–eight–year-old Kumarie Tikaram died after being struck down by an intoxicated driver in a speeding car

all over the road. The eyewitness said the woman went further into the corner of the road, but about two seconds after, was struck down and pitched some distance from the point of impact. “After the accident, the stupid driver drove away. I could not have gotten to see his number plate because the place was dark. When I went to help the woman, she was looking “bruk up” but she was still alive. Residents attempted to take her to the West Demerara Regional Hospital, but she died on the way,” the eyewitness said.

Only late Saturday night, biker Sunil Brijhuram, 21, of Vive La Force, West Bank Demerara was killed after he lost control of his motorcycle and collided with a parked motor car while reportedly travelling at a fast rate along the Goed Intent Public Road, West Bank Demerara at about 23:00hrs that day. His friend Joshua Higgins, 18, of the same village, was injured and is in a serious condition at the Georgetown Public Hospital after he had also been speeding on his motorcycle and collided with the same car.

Education Ministry unveils five-year literacy strategic plan

- during celebration of International Day of Literacy 2014

The gathering at the Literacy Launch 2014 (Adrian Narine photos)

By Rebecca Ganesh THE Ministry of Education yesterday celebrated International Day of Literacy 2014 under the theme ‘The literacy revolution has begun’ with a literacy exhibition at Main Street, Georgetown. As part of the Ministry of Education’s National Literacy Action Plan under the theme ‘Literate by Grade 4 through consistent home, school and

community involvement’, Minister of Education, Priya Manickchand also launched the five-year literacy strategic plan. Speaking at the launch, Assistant Chief Education Officer, Primary, Marcel Hutson remarked that the Ministry of Education has recognised the need to have quality education and to improve literacy countrywide. “As we celebrate International Literacy Day, our

literacy launch could not have come at a better time. And I do believe that is critical in the process of life and if we do not master reading at an early age we become lost in society,” Hutson emphasised. He highlighted the absolute importance of grade level reading being achieved or else it will create a massive barrier in the education and professional life of that student. “As a ministry we are determined that every child should be able

Minister Priya Manickchand interacting with students from David Rose School for the Handicapped

to read at grade 4 and part of this task lies in the hands of the parents,” Hutson said. Chief Education Officer, Mr. Olato Sam, noted that the more literate the population, the greater the output of that nation. “We should work towards this; the call today is to establish a culture that encompasses the theme ‘Literate by Grade 4 through consistent home, school and community involvement’.” He reiterated his colleague’s position that everyone needs to get involved if Guyana is to become fully literate and to encourage persons to start giving books to children instead of other items. “Encourage them that reading is fun and also important…” Meanwhile, in her feature address Minister Manickchand alluded to the fact that all across the world governments, NGOs, ministries and other organisations recognise that their country is not at a place they want to be where literacy is concerned and because of this they have embarked on

“the literacy revolution has begun” mission. She asserted that in the education sector, “while we are at the best place we have ever been we are not comfortable as a Government and as a Ministry that we are in the best place that we can ever be. That is why an effort is required from every single one of us if we are to get to this place.” 32% READING AT GRADE LEVEL Minister Manickchand said that the Education Ministry had conducted a literacy test on the number of students who can read at their grade level. This test was conducted from Grade One to Grade Six, and while it does not say that the students cannot read, “it simply opened our eyes that more needs to be done since only 32% of our students are reading at grade level.” Manickchand concluded her address by urging parents to consider that their support, assistance and encouragement will be very important to their

children’s education. Yesterday’s event also saw the minister and other education officials, students and religious leaders being the first to participate in the ‘Drop everything and read’ initiative as part of the many activities to commemorate Education Month 2014. Students also had the opportunity to visit the mini exhibition and read a book.

Students browsing through the display of books

Cops were chasing ‘smokers’ when Patentia Secondary student was shot dead By George Barclay THE prosecution in the Patentia Secondary School ‘smoking’ murder trial disclosed yesterday that police were chasing a gang of runaway drug smokers in the school compound when one of them was shot to death. The student, Kelvin Antony Fraser was reported to have been shot by Police Constable, Quancy John of the Wales Police Station,

West Bank Demerara, in that incident. Represented by attorney-at-law, Mr. Glenn Hanoman, Quancy John has pleaded not guilty to the charge of murder committed on Kelvin Anthony Fraser. Attorney-at-law, Miss Diana Kaulesar is prosecuting. The first witness to testify for the prosecution yesterday was Head Teacher Mrs. Gloria Gobin. She told Justice Franklyn Holder and

a mixed jury that she was in her office on Monday, 7th June, 2010, when a teacher made a complaint to her, in reaction to which she had gone to a section of the school, where she had seen approximately four boys smoking. One of them was Prem Seecharran. She said she knows Kelvin Fraser but she cannot say whether he was there, as the three others were backing her. As a result of what she

had seen that day, she called in the police and Mr. Ramkissoon of the community policing group. Mrs. Gobin said that after the police arrived on the scene, pandemonium reigned as people ran helter-skelter away from the police. Prem, she said, jumped over a gate in his bid to get away from the police, and jumped right into the hands of the police. Another witness said Fraser was shot in a bid to

escape. The head-teacher said that, prior to that day; she had cause to call in the police to report that outsiders were in the habit of smoking drugs at the school under the stairs, and interfering with female teachers by disclosing the colour of their panties and tugging at their garments. Mrs. Gobin said that the uniform of the school for boys was green pants and white shirts, while girls

wore white and green. In answer to a question from Mr. Hanoman, the witness said that some of the people whom she had referred to as outsiders might have been students who did not wear their uniform. For instance, she said, Seecharran, whom she had recognised, was a student of the school who was not in uniform that day. Hearing into this matter is continuing at the Demerara Assizes.

Father of three remanded over murder of fisherman

- confesses in court but claims fisherman’s wife helped him By Leroy Smith ERROL Khan was yesterday remanded to prison until October 1, 2014 when he appeared before Magistrate Zameena Ali at the Vigilance Magistrate’s Court, East Coast of Demerara, charged with the May 2 murder of Chetram Bharat. The man was not required to plead to the indictable charge. Khan was also charged with the felonious wounding of the deceased’s wife, Lomattie Ramdat on the said date by unlawfully and maliciously wounding her to maim, disfigure, disable or cause her grievous bodily harm. The man was not required to plead to this charge since it was also indictable.

When Khan heard the second charge being read to him, he interrupted the magistrate to ask if he alone had been charged for the murder of the fisherman and the magistrate replied, “it seems so.” The man then declared that he along with Lomattie Ramdat were the ones who killed Bharrat but he was promptly cautioned by the magistrate that he has the right to remain silent in court. Khan gave his address as Enmore, East Coast Demerara and told the court that he is the father of three children, unmarried and works as a labourer. When asked if he was ever charged before, the man responded in the negative and the magistrate informed him of the facts she had available

GUYANA CHRONICLE Tuesday September 9, 2014

Aries - March 21 - April 19 Weariness may have you feeling a bit listless today, and you're likely to want to stay home in bed rather than go anywhere. This goes against your normal inclination, so you could be tempted to bite the bullet and get out in spite of your malaise. Don't fall into this trap. Get some rest so that when you absolutely have to go out, you'll be your old self again. Taurus - April 20 - May 20 A lover or close friend may seem to have dropped out of the picture, and this could have you worried, confused, and wondering if this person isn't interested in continuing a relationship with you. Don't let your insecurity get the best of you. The person has his or her troubles and will eventually want a strong, sympathetic shoulder to cry on. You're likely to be that person! Gemini - May 21 - June 21 Career interests may be short-circuited by gossip, rumour, and office politics. Someone has an agenda and isn't likely to care too much about the effect on others' lives of any underhanded dealings. If you hear about such goings-on, do what you can to stop them before they get out of hand. That way you can protect your and your colleagues' career interests.

Murder accused Errol Khan making his way into the Vigilance Magistrate’s Court yesterday morning

to her which suggested that he was charged in the past for possession of narcotics. In the wee hours of the morning of Friday, May 2, Khan reportedly entered the home of fisherman Chetram Bharrat and his reputed wife, Lomattie Ramdat and began hacking away at the two with a cutlass. Khan admitted that he had been sharing a relationship with the dead man’s wife and they had a problem and she defected to her husband, causing him to get upset and jealous. During the attack the woman reportedly attempted to go to her husband’s aid but was also chopped several times by the assailant. After the incident, the woman who claimed that she and her husband suffered the fate as a result of a robbery was forced to change her story after residents who are familiar with her relationship with the accused began speaking about it and expressing the view that it was her lover who had committed the act. The police then went in search of Khan and a wanted bulletin was issued for him. He was captured last week Friday by the police after being on the run for four months.

Cancer - June 22 - July 22 Perhaps you've been planning a trip or a return to school for a long time. However, a rather disturbing letter or phone call could jeopardise your plans and leave you teetering on the edge of disappointment. If you look at the situation carefully, you may find that it doesn't set you back that much. You can take care of it without sacrificing what you want. Leo - July 23 - August 22 Seemingly bad news about your financial situation could throw your usually evenkeeled nature off kilter. Look into the matter carefully before panicking. There may have been a computer error or other mistake, or perhaps someone confused you with someone else. Take steps to rectify the blunder. It's a drag, but you'll be relieved to know that all was better than it seemed. Virgo - August 23 - September 22 An unpleasant situation could arise. Your first reaction may be to protect those closest to you from the truth. You could be tempted to lie or at least avoid mentioning the situation. Don't give in to the temptation. Your desire to shield loved ones is understandable, but it could cause problems. You can't protect people from everything. Most people prefer to know the facts. Libra - September 23 - October 22 Your mind may be going a thousand miles an hour today. You might be inundated with new ideas and information that could cause mental overload. Write it all down if you can. You'll want to refer to it later. It might be advisable to then go out for a walk or other exercise. This intellectual overload could produce excess nervous energy that you'll need to work off. Scorpio - October 23 - November 21 Worries over the situation of a lover or close friend who seems depressed could plague you today, yet you may hesitate to contact this person and ask what's wrong because you don't want to intrude. Nonetheless, you should. All is not as bad as it seems, and your concern will be appreciated. Tonight get some much-needed rest. You've been working far too hard. Sagittarius - November 22 - December 20 A family member may be depressed and not up for talking about what's wrong. His or her mood could spread to everyone else, so it might be a good idea to ask what's wrong. Point out that moods are contagious! Don't force the issue. That would be worse. A number of calls could interrupt your work, which you might find irritating. Don't be afraid to let voicemail get the calls. Capricorn - December 21 - January 19 Misinformation might spread through your extended family or neighbourhood and cause unnecessary upsets among those involved. Don't accept at face value any gossip or rumour you hear today until you check it out yourself. It could turn out to be a tempest in a teapot. This isn't a good time to plan or take a trip of any kind. Delays or mishaps could result. Aquarius - January 20 - February 18 Misinformation regarding money could come from someone who has a stake in your believing whatever you're told. This could be a banker, creditor, investment counsellor, or even a close friend or relative. Whoever it is, don't accept what this person says at face value. Look into the facts of the situation yourself before making any decisions about what you need to do. Pisces - February 19 - March 20 Someone close to you may not be totally honest. This person could be avoiding telling the truth or hiding something from you in order to protect you. Trust your instincts. If someone tells you something important that doesn't ring true, check it out before accepting one person's word. This isn't a vicious deception - only a protective one. But shielding someone from the truth can sometimes backfire!

Number 18 in the books, Williams targets next grand slam By Steve Keating NEW YORK, USA (Reuters) - Serena Williams allowed herself a moment to savour a third straight U.S. Open win on Sunday, but only a moment. Just three hours after securing her 18th grand slam title with a dominating 6-3, 6-3 win over Denmark's Caroline Wozniacki, the world number one soaked up the accolades and applause and then admitted that she was already thinking about number 19 and third spot on the alltime list now held by Helen Wills Moody. "I am thinking 19," said Williams, who shares fourth on the list with Chris Evert and Martina Navratilova. "Hasn't even been three hours and I have already mentioned 19. Oh, gosh, but not 22. "I'm taking it one at a time." Williams will celebrate her 33rd birthday later this month and clearly has plans to celebrate many more grand slam titles as she climbs further-and-further up the rankings. Moody, at number 19, is

the next target but just ahead sits Steffi Graf on 22 and just ahead of her is the great Margaret Court who tops the list with 24. Until Sunday it did not look as if Williams would add to her grand slam haul this season. She had added five tournament titles to her collection this season, coming into the U.S. Open with her career total at 62, but at the grand slams she had fallen flat, failing to get beyond the last 16 in any of the first three majors. However, if there was any thought that Williams' career was on the decline she erased it with a stunningly ruthless performance, confirming herself as the Queen of Flushing Meadows. In claiming her sixth U.S. Open and third straight, Williams did not drop a set and never lost more than three games in any of them, capping off her run to the title with a ruthless 75-minute demolition of her one of her best friends to the delight of her fans who packed Arthur Ashe Stadium court. "I just could never have

imagined that I would be mentioned with Chris Evert or with Martina Navratilova, because I was just a kid with a dream and a racquet,"

"I want to do really well and I love the game," Williams added. "The reason I play is to sit at the end of the day and

hold the trophy or stand and hold the trophy. For me, that's my joy. "I'm just a simple individual who just wants to win ti-

tles and wants to play tennis." Williams' rise from the Los Angeles ghetto to top of her sport is a tennis fairytale and despite describing herself as a "simple" woman, those who have faced her on the court understand that she is something quite exceptional. "I don't believe that talent can beat everything," said Wozniacki, who leaned on Williams for support after golfer Rory McIlroy broke off their engagement just before the French Open. "She works hard every day, just like we, but when she needs to she can pull out that big serve. She has the power. "She can push us back on the court and take the initiative. She definitely has the experience now, as well ... and it makes it even harder to beat her. "I think her results and her career says it all: 18 grand slam titles. "You don't get that unless you're exceptional in what you do." After nearly two decades of amassing records and titles Williams is still driven by the pursuit of excellence and the thrill of victory.

This marks a record 15th straight year Williams has won at least one singles or doubles grand slam title and with her win on Sunday she became the second woman in the Open Era to win three consecutive U.S. Open titles. Next year she will return to Flushing Meadows looking to match Evert's record of four set from 1975 to ’78. Although she has considerable accomplishments to reflect on, Williams says it is not something that she and older sister Venus, a double U.S. Open champion, dwell on. And it is not a conversation they plan on having for some time. "I think we'll have those conversations when we retire, and hopefully that will be a long time from now," said Williams. "Right now we just really want to be in there. "We want to win matches. We want to win titles. We want to do really well. We just don't talk about that right now. "I want to continue to rise and continue to play really hard and do the best that I can."

Cilic crushes Nishikori to .. From back page

to me was enjoying tennis and always having fun." "I enjoyed my best tennis over here and played the best ever in my life." The final marked the first time since the 2005 Australian Open that at least one of tennis's big three of Novak Djokovic, Rafa Nadal and Roger Federer was not playing for the title. The two players walked onto the Arthur Ashe Stadium court under overcast skies and much more forgiving conditions than the sweltering heat they faced through much of the fortnight. While both men were playing in their first grand slam final it was Nishikori who displayed more jitters as Cilic quickly found his range and unloaded on his helpless opponent by blasting 17 aces to Nishikori's two. Nishikori had his opportunities with nine break chances but could convert just one while Cilic was five of 11 and enjoyed a 38-19 edge in winners. "It's a really tough loss but I’m really happy coming to my first final," said Nishikori, who appeared to run out of gas after beating three consecutive top-10 opponents and having to endure a pair of five-setters. "Sorry I couldn’t get a trophy today but for sure next time. "It was a really fun two weeks here. I hope I can be coming back next year." 'PRETTY NERVOUS' Cilic had Nishikori on the back foot from start to finish, speeding through the opening set in 33 minutes.

The 14th seed, using his huge wingspan to reach out and bash forehands across court and a booming serve to score easy points, again had an early break in the second and added another to go up 5-2. Nishikori mustered a fightback to score his only break of the match and close to 5-3 but the relentless Cilic broke right back for a 2-0 lead killing any momentum his reeling opponent was building. With a maiden grand slam within sight, Cilic kept his foot on the gas and grabbed an early break in the third. The only nerves Cilic would show came when he double faulted on his first match point. But it was only a momentary lapse as he buckled down and finished off a reeling Nishikori with a backhard winner before letting out a mighty scream as he fell onto his back and raised his arms in celebration. "You never know when the nerves are going to kick in," said Cilic, who returned to competition last October after a four-month ban for what he always maintained was the result of ingesting a banned substance through a tainted supplement. "I think both of us were pretty nervous in the first set especially. "Everything I was working for and dreaming came today and I feel for all the other players that are working hard, I think this is a big sign, a big hope that if you are working hard things are going to pay off."

Blatter seeks to stay as FIFA president into his 80s By Mike Collett MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - The prospect of Sepp Blatter continuing as FIFA president into his early 80s came a step nearer yesterday when he confirmed he was standing for a fifth term of office next year. Blatter, who will be 79 when the votes are cast next June and who was first elected 16 years ago, confirmed his candidature for another term as president in a recorded interview transmitted to delegates at the Soccerex Global Convention. "You see a mission is never finished and my mission is not finished," he said in the 42-minute interview, adding that he would officially tell members of FIFA's executive committee of his candidature in Zurich at the end of this month. "I got (from) the last (FIFA) congress in Sao Paulo not only the impression but the support of the majority, a huge majority of national associations asking: 'Please

go on, be our president also in future.' "Now I would make an official declaration definitely in September (to stand). "I will inform the executive committee. It's a question of respect also to say then to the football family, 'Yes I will be ready. I will be a candidate.'" The news comes as little surprise as Blatter had dropped strong hints he would stand again and if he sees out his potential fouryear term he will be 83 by the time of the next planned election in 2019. In the last 40 years FIFA has had just two presidents. Joao Havelange ruled from 1974 until 1998 when Blatter, his former secretary general, took over. Before the World Cup started in Brazil in June, five of FIFA's six confederations - the exception being UEFA - gave Blatter their support to continue as president and it is almost inconceivable that he will not be re-elected when voting takes place at the FIFA Congress in Zurich

next June. Last month Michel Platini ended speculation about his bid for the presidency when he said he would not stand for election - instead he will seek another term as the president of European football's ruling body, UEFA. Blatter said he knew of Platini's plans in advance of the Frenchman's announcement in Monte Carlo on August 28. "I was not surprised because in private conversations I have had with Michel Platini before, during and after the World Cup he has confirmed he would not be a candidate, but that there would be a contender." "And I think he is a reliable man when he is not only speaking colleague to colleague but friend to friend even if we are not always at the same idea in football by saying he would not stand." Platini, a former longtime supporter of Blatter, said in June he no longer backed him as FIFA president but UEFA has so far not put forward a candidate to stand against him. The only other declared candidate is the former FIFA deputy secretary general Frenchman Jerome Cham-

pagne, although his campaign is independent of UEFA's backing and might well be cancelled now Blatter has declared his interest. IMPROVE FOOTBALL Blatter said that if he were re-elected he would like to give coaches the right to challenge refereeing decisions. He first mooted the idea at the FIFA Congress in June, but expanded on it at Soccerex. "I will propose it to the International Board (the game's law-making body)," he said. "They (coaches) should have the right maybe once or twice in a half, the means to challenge a refereeing decision, but only when the game is stopped." Blatter also said he was confident that the 2018 World Cup in Russia and the 2022 World Cup in Qatar would both go ahead as scheduled and that calls from some European bureaucrats to boycott the World Cup in Russia or remove it from the country because of the crisis in Ukraine were misguided. "We are monitoring that situation but not interfering," he said. "For the time being we are strong to maintain

Michel Platini

Sepp Blatter

the organisation of the World Cup in Russia and in Qatar in 2022. "Concerning the one in 2018, in Russia, there are already some voices coming out about 2018 talking about a boycott – a boycott in sport never has had any benefit. "Let us wait and see the geo-political situation and FIFA shall not intervene with politics. But for the time being we are working with Russia. I have been there three weeks ago and I have had the report on the stadium work they are doing and they are on a route." Concerning Qatar, he reiterated the World Cup would not be played in the summer heat of 2022 but emphasised

that no new date had yet been fixed. Regarding the allegations of corruption surrounding the 2022 World Cup decision taken in December 2010, he said: "We still await the report of FIFA’s ethics committee who made an in-depth investigation and we are awaiting the results of this, this month or next month. "In the rotation of the World Cup it was obvious that one day we should give the World Cup to the Arabic world. It was a decision taken by a democratic vote; now we have to make the best of it in order to show a small country can also host the World Cup -- but it is a challenge."

Injured Clarke still a doubt for Pakistan series …Spinner O'Keefe and allrounder Marsh in Test squad

MELBOURNE, Australia (Reuters) - Injured captain Michael Clarke has been named in Australia's Test and one-day squads for next month's series against Pakistan but remains a doubt to be fit for the start of the tour in the United Arab Emirates. Australia's top batsman, Clarke flew home from Zimbabwe last week after aggravating his left hamstring during a one-day international tournament and has not been cleared to play in the twoTest series and three ODIs. Australia's selectors are clearly hedging their bets of a recovery, however, and named Clarke captain of the 15-man squad for the Tests and also skipper of the 14-member ODI squad released yesterday. After a one-off Twenty20 match on October 5, Australia play Pakistan in the three one-dayers over the following week before the first Test starts October 22 in Dubai.

The second starts October 30 in Abu Dhabi. "No. Not confident," selector Rod Marsh told a media conference in Sydney yesterday when asked of Clarke's chances to be fit for the first Test. "You can't be confident about Michael but I'll tell you what, he hasn't missed one in however many he's played, over 100. "He's got a great track record of getting up for Tests. "I'm sure he'll be alright because there's no more dedicated bloke in getting his rehab in than Michael. "He will not want to miss any Test matches, even if that means he has to miss some one-dayers and I'm not suggesting that." All-rounder Shane Watson has been named in all three Tests, one-day and T20 squads, after missing the one-day tournament against Zimbabwe and South Africa, having rolled an ankle when he stepped on a ball at train-

ing. Top-order batsman David Warner, who was rested from the Zimbabwe tour, has also been recalled in all three squads. Selectors have included left-arm orthodox spinner Steve O'Keefe and all-rounder Mitchell Marsh in the Test squad. Pakistan struggled last month against another leftarm spinner in Sri Lanka's Rangana Herath, who took 23 wickets in the home series, a record for a two-Test series.

St Lucia, St Kitts Botofago blank Eagles United 4-0 to lift Under-20 title through after easy Caribban Cup wins By Joe Chapman

…Guyana, Dominica finish without a win

BASSETERRE, St Kitts (CMC) – St Lucia and St Kitts & Nevis celebrated their berths in the next round of the Caribbean Cup qualifiers, with comfortable victories in the final series of Group 6 matches here Sunday. While St Lucia beat Dominica 2-1, St Kitts cruised past Guyana 2-0 at Warner Park here, both finishing on seven points. Guyana and Dominica finished without a win and were bottom of the group on one point. St Lucia were propelled by a double from the expe-

rienced Cliff Valcin who scored on either side of halftime. He put St Lucia ahead in the 28th minute to secure them a 1-0 half-time lead but Julian Wade found the nets for Dominica in the 68th, to put the game back in the balance. Three minutes later, Valcin struck again to give St Lucia the lead for good. St Kitts, meanwhile, were powered by secondhalf goals from Zephaniah Thomas and Major League Soccer star Atiba Harris, following a goal-less first half. In Group 5 staged at the

A JAMAL Haynes double guided Botofago to a 4-0 blanking of Eagles United when the two sides clashed in the final the Upper Demerara Football Association/Net Rockers Under-20 football inter-club championship title on Sunday afternoon at the Wisburg Secondary School ground. In the third place playoff game Winners Connection’s Marmalaque Davidson netted a hat-trick as his team thrashed Net Rockers 7-2 to amass the most goals - 16 - in the championship. Played in front of a fairsize crowd Botofago were able to overcome the fact that they had lost 2-1 to their opponents earlier in the tournament and asserted themselves well to capture this championship. After it looked like neither side would score approaching the end of the first half striker Jamal Haynes was brought down by the defender who was marking him in the ‘box’

which resulted in a penalty being awarded to Botofago on the stroke of halftime. DeShawn Moore then stepped up to convert the spot kick to end the first half 1-0 ahead. Moore then made his incisive play after he found three defence players ball-watching, instead of clearing in the goal mouth, allowing Moore to turn inside to tuck in the goal for a Botofago 2-0 lead in the 67th minute. As the game progressed the Botofago unit looked superior in offence and created problems for their opponents whose lax defending opened the way in the 78th minute for Donavan Francis to volley a fumble by the Eagles goalkeeper from close range for a 3-0 advantage. As the Eagles sought some respite by replacing their starting goalkeeper, the same result came via wayward defending by the Eagles and coming through the middle this time. Haynes, later named the Most Valuable Player of the tournament, from on top the 18 yards box went past the onrush-

ing substitute goalkeeper and his defender, to calmly guide the ball into an open goal sealing an emphatic 4-0 triumph. In the 7-2 whipping of Net Rockers Winners Connection got their goals from Marmalaque Davidson in the 2nd, 10th, and 47th minutes, Jonathan Fredericks in the 16th, Ronex Velloza in the 17th, Andre Phillips in the 25th and Denzil Fordyce in the 45th while for Net Rockers their goals came from an own goal and the other by Shaquille Clarke in the 16th minute. Member of Parliament Renis Morian presented the championship trophy to the B o t o f a g o c a p t a i n Tr a v i n Dryden along with the replicas as former top football coach Jimmy McLean handed over the Most Valuable Player trophy to Haynes. Botofago was adjudged the Most Disciplined club in the eight-team championship.

Guyana’s booting from CFU Ramdin should not competition expected have declared before …Selection process blamed THE experience-deficient Guyana national football team returned home without a victory from their involvement in the Caribbean Football Union Cup competition held in St Kitts and Nevis recently. Guyana’s poor showing has given rise to more questions surrounding the selection process which produced the team. Guyana drew 0-0 with Dominica then lost 2-0 to St Lucia and St Kitts in Group Six action of the competition leaving the Golden Jaguars with the ignominy of not scoring a single goal in three matches. The national team was without a number of its experienced faces and without the services of long-time head coach Wayne `Wiggy’ Dover, who was replaced by Denzil `Hunky Brains’ Thompson just weeks ago. Outspoken Alpha United president Odinga Lumumba declared that the writing was on the wall the moment the team was selected. “I did not expect better results without us reverting to magic. The entire selection process was

flawed and we will continue to get the same results if it’s not fixed soon,” Lumumba warned. He added that even if the emphasis is being placed on youth there must be an element of experience in any team, unless the goal is not to win. Walter Moore, who plays pro football in Kazakhstan, was the only member of the side with senior international experience going into the CFU competition. Coach Dover, who was appointed head coach in 2005 and piloted Guyana to their highest FIFA Ranking (91) in 2011 was surprisingly fired a few weeks ago and replaced with Thompson. Meanwhile, the Guyana Football Federation (GFF) defended the selection by announcing that it was moulding for the future. However, Lumumba scoffed at this line of reasoning while insisting that the GFF was making mock of the game and national pride. “Gregory `Jackie Chan’ Richardson is the most talented striker in Guyana and maybe in the Caribbean at the moment. He has dominated

the local league and has scored the most goals. You have to be insane to leave out him out. “You have to be mad not to include Dwight Peters and goalkeeper Ronson Williams in any current senior national line up,” Lumumba stressed. “You must have a mixture of youth and experience. In a small country like Guyana your team should be made up of Guyanese wherever there are. It’s downright foolishness to have only players who live in Guyana selected to your team. We have so much talent at our disposal and yet this,” Lumumba declared. He urged the present administration to immediately get back to the table and devise a plan that can bring back honour to the nation. “I believe the selection process was flawed. If you want to win then you must have your best players. Guyana did not have its best players representing her at the CFU competition, so we lost. The fact is that we lost to teams that we could have closed our eyes and defeated had we sent out best players.

Chanderpaul reached his century

By Oscar Ramjeet

Wayne Dover

Brazil had the same problem in the last World Cup. They tried to use a lot of young players and they failed,” Lumumba said. According to the Alpha United president, the reason for the recent shift in selection must have come about because of a difference in philosophy of the administration of the Guyana Football Federation. “The president of GFF feels that there must be a change, and the need to create something new. Quite evidently his vision is to get rid of all that is old and start afresh. I have a different philosophy. I think that there should be a mix. History will absolve me.”

I AM OF the firm view that West Indies skipper Denesh Ramdin should not have declared before Shivnarine Chanderpaul reached his century. I think that the early declaration was not justified because there was ample time to bowl out Bangladesh twice. Reports from Arnos Vale state that the 40-year-old seemed to be satisfied with recording his 47th not out at this level, but I do not agree that he was at all satisfied because he was aiming at yet another hundred. The veteran has so far scored 29 Test centuries amassing 11 414 Test runs -- the second highest and he is now moving to surpass Brian Lara's record of 11 953 with 34 centuries - 5 more than ‘Tiger’ The quiet middle-order batsman is very humble and

he would not try to show his disagreement with his skipper for the early declaration. He has not been dismissed on 34 occasions in his 93 Test innings where he has scored more than 50 runs. He is the most reliable batsman in the West Indies and maybe in the world. An old lawyer friend of mine, Desmond Maynard, of St Kitts, who practises in St Thomas said that Shiv is like "money in the bank" you can always rely on him. Despite his excellent performance and his rather aggressive batting at times the selectors have not seen it fit to play him in One Day Internationals. Remember he scored the third fastest Test century. He had a problem with former head coach Ottis Gibson who was trying to advise him from the pavilion how to bat. Now that Gibson is out I sincerely hope that Clive Lloyd will give him the nod.

GUYANA’S former sprint champion Alicia Fortune yesterday paid a courtesy call on the Minister of Culture, Youth and Sport Dr Frank Anthony to share with him the gains of her journey to San Jose, Costa Rica where she represented Guyana at the North, Central American and Caribbean World Masters Athletics Championships (NCCWMA) last August. Fortune competed in the 35-39 age categories in the 100-, 200- and 400- metre track events, copping gold in all three. Following this achievement, the Guyana Masters Association is planning to send a group of athletes to the South American Masters Championships in Medellin, Colombia, in November, with Fortune being given a special invitation in an effort to enhance the quality of the competition. Fortune’s success comes after more than 10 years of the Masters Association being inactive and months after it was resuscitated in June of this year. While interacting with the Minister and Permanent Sec-

retary Alfred King, Fortune noted that the experience was gratifying especially when the Golden Arrowhead was hoisted, adding that with the completion of the synthetic track at Leonora, athletics’ training will be boosted. Minister Anthony lauded Fortune for her achievement which demonstrates that an athlete is never too old to compete and expressed his satisfaction with Fortune’s passion for the sport. The minister also noted that he is pleased with the resuscitation of the Masters Association, and hopes that there will be more collaboration between the ministry and the organisation, while suggesting that Guyana start its own Masters competition so that Guyanese athletes in this particular category will have the chance to perform. With regard to the synthetic track, Minister Anthony recalled the recent certification of the facility and added that equipment of international standards is being procured and there are works to be completed soon on the stands and surroundings.

Sloppy Windies let Bangladesh off hook …Mushfiqur, Mahmudullah hit half-centuries

Bangladesh captain Mushfiqur Rahim was unbeaten on 70 at the close

KINGSTOWN, St Vincent (CMC) – Half-centuries from plucky skipper Mushfiqur Rahim and all-rounder Mahmudullah, coupled with a healthy dose of mediocrity from West Indies, gave Bangladesh a stay of execution on the penultimate day of the opening Test here yesterday. Facing a comprehensive defeat after stumbling to 110 for four at lunch, Mushfiqur stroked an unbeaten 70 while Mahmudullah gathered a

courageous 66, as Bangladesh fought back gallantly to finish the day at Arnos Vale on 256 for five. The pair added a precious 130 for the fifth wicket, a stand that was as much a result of the batsmen’s resilience as it was the Windies ineptitude. And while the hosts remained on course for victory with the visitors still needing another 46 runs to avoid an innings defeat, their missteps allowed Bangladesh to take the game into the final day and devalue their dominance. Left-handed opener Tamim Iqbal chipped in with an attacking 53 while Imrul Kayes hit 25, but seamer Kemar Roach (2-39) and left-arm spinner (2-44) struck at key moments to keep the innings unstable. Bowled out on the stroke of the close on Sunday, Bangladesh found themselves at the crease again after West Indies enforced the followon, and once again their start

proved miserable. Shamsur Rahman lasted all of eight deliveries before edging Roach behind for four in the fourth over of the day, for wicketkeeper Denesh Ramdin to take a smart catch moving to his right. Tottering at 11 for one, Bangladesh had the damage repaired by Tamim and Imrul Kayes, who hit 25, in a 70-run, second-wicket stand. Tamim hammered four fours and three sixes off 107 balls while Imrul provided the perfect foil, batting an hourand-a-half, facing 72 balls and cracking four fours. Three of Imrul’s fours came in one over from Roach as the left-hander punished loose bowling with aggressive off-side strokes. However, his dismissal proved a soft one in the end, tamely patting part-time off-spinner Chris Gayle into Kirk Edwards’ hands at cover. Tamim also played freely, twice driving seamer Jerome Taylor to the cover boundary off successive deliveries

before clearing long-off with part-time off-spinner Jermaine Blackwood and then going over long-on for the maximum with Benn. With lunch approaching, Benn struck two key blows, having Mominul Haque caught at the wicket for 12 with the score on 104 and then bowling Tamim with three runs added, as the batsman missed an attacking back foot stroke. West Indies were then held up after lunch as Mushfiqur and Mahmudullah resisted stoutly and batted through the session, courtesy of poor work in the field. Overall, Mushfiqur has so far faced 193 balls and counted eight fours while Mahmudullah spent just over 3-1/2 hours at the crease, faced 151 balls and cracked seven fours and a six. Unbeaten on one at lunch, Mushfiqur had battled to ten about 40 minutes after the resumption when he nicked one from Roach to first slip where Gayle grassed the chance. Mushfiqur was then given another reprieve on 25, slic-

ing Taylor to gully where Darren Bravo dived to his right but failed to hang on. Mahmudullah, on four at lunch, grew in confidence, twice pulling Taylor for boundaries in the same over before whipping Gayle to mid-wicket for four and clearing the ropes in the same area with the Jamaican a few overs later. Bangladesh rallied to 184 for four at tea and afterward, both Mahmudullah and Mushfiqur completed well deserved half-centuries –

both reaching their landmark with boundaries within an over of each other. Mahmudullah was too a recipient of the Windies’ sloppiness when on 53, he skied a simple catch to cover off Gayle only for Edwards to unbelievably muff the opportunity. Thankfully, Mahmudullah survived just 22 more deliveries before Roach removed him to a catch at the wicket with the second new ball, with the Windies running out of ideas.

Demerara remain unbeaten with convincing win over Under-19 GCB Senior Inter-County

By Calvin Roberts

JOINT defending champions Demerara kept their unbeaten record in this year’s Guyana Cricket Board (GCB) senior Intercounty limited overs title intact, following a convincing seven-wicket victory over a hapless National Under-19 lineup at the Georgetown Cricket Club ground yesterday. The Brian Sattaur-led youth team won the toss and opted to take first strike in hazy conditions, one they

probably regretted when they lost Tagenarine Chanderpaul (0) off the fourth ball of the innings, caught at the wicket by Shemroy Barrington off Paul Wintz. It was a blow from which they never recovered, as Wintz, Christopher Barnwell and Seon Daniels reduced them to 48 for 6, before Kemol Savory scored an unbeaten 59 and Damion Waldron (6) added 44 for the seventh wicket. It helped revived the team who two weeks ago had won the Regional double, as they

were bowled out for 125 off 29 overs, to which Demerara

replied with 127 for 3 from 19.3 overs, thanks to Trevon Griffith’s 51 and an unbeaten 28 from Barnwell. When the Under-19s batted, they saw Shimron Hetmyer (1) go in similar fashion like Chanderpaul, with the bowler being Daniels (1 for 21) at 7 for 2, before Brian Sattaur 8 (1x6) and Kemo Paul 6 (1x4) added 20 for the third wicket. But from 20 for 2, the Under-19s slipped to 48 for 6, losing Paul, Sattaur, Ashkay Homraj (1) and Shiraz Ramcharran, before Savory and Waldron brought some respectability to their team’s innings with their partnership that was broken when Waldron was lbw to Raj Nannan, followed quickly by Steven Sankar (0) who was dismissed in similar fashion off the next delivery. They got to 100 from 25.3 overs with Savory on 39 and extras contributing a healthy 33 - all wides - before Savory got his well deserved half-century off 66 balls with five fours and followed it up with a six and four off Nan-

nan, before the innings was closed. Asked to bat nine overs before the lunch interval, Demerara raced to 78 without loss with Griffith on 46 that included seven fours and a six struck over long off, off Nial Smith even though he lost his footing in the process and Robin Bacchus 23. After the break, Demerara lost Bacchus who was caught by Paul at deep midwicket off Keon Morris (1 for 31) for 29 (4x4), before Griffith posted his 50 from 41 balls without any additional boundaries. He was bowled first ball by Waldron (1 for 9), looking to sweep, for 51 (43 balls, 7x4, 1x6). Barrington never looked comfortable against the allspin attack that was employed by Sattaur and, having survived a confident shout for a catch at the wicket off Ramcharran to which the umpire surprisingly said not out, he lost his off stump to Sankar, who was struck for four by Barnwell to seal the win two balls later. Barnwell, who struck

Ramcharran for four and a six that sailed over the GCB’s office at the Southern End of the venue, was unbeaten on 28 (21 balls, 3x4, 1x6) and had Rajendra Chandrika as his partner on 1 when victory was achieved. At the Everest Cricket Club ground, Berbice, who hoisted the title together with Demerara last year after rain washed out the contest, made a mockery of Essequibo who were coming off a high following their 229-run win over the Under-19s in the previous round. Batting first, the Cinderella County were bowled out for 163 inside 46.3 overs, which marked a recovery after they were stuttering on 46 for 5, having lost Kevon Boodie (0), Norman Fredericks (0), Royan Fredericks (2), Ricardo Adams (9) and Vijay Surujpaul 12 (2x4). Debutant Anthony Ifill 29 (2x4) and skipper Anthony Adams 49 (3x4; 1x6) repaired the damage with their 38-run sixth-wicket partnership, before Ifill, who plays for Gandhi Youth Organisation in Georgetown, was lbw to Narsingh Deonarine. Adams added 32 with Eknauth Persaud 45 (3x4, Turn to page 25

Josiah fires Showstoppers to Stag Beer ‘West Side’ 5-A-Side football title

Sloppy Windies let Bangladesh off hook See page 27

… Mushfiqur, Mahmudullah hit half-centuries The victorious Showstoppers team

… New Road Eagles claim third place MARVIN Josiah was by far the most fascinating player in the competition and the Showstoppers talisman saved his best performance for last, scoring a helmet-trick of goals to help pilot his team to a 6-3 win over Stewartville Gunners when the final of the Ansa McAl/Stag Beer ‘West Side’ 5-A-Side football tournament was played last Sunday.

The tournament which enjoyed great crowd support saw scores of people converge on the Vergenoegen Rice Mill Tarmac to witness the final. As a result Showstoppers went home with $200 000 for their victory and Josiah earned $10 000 for his Most Valuable Player (MVP) performance. Stewartville Gunners had to settle for $100 000 while New Road Eagles, who defeated De Tournament MVP Marvin Josiah Kinderen Village 9-1, collected $75 000 for finishing third. The Gunners defeated De Kinderen Village 3-1 to book their place in the final against Showstoppers who defeated New Road Eagles 6-2 in their semi-final but fans and bookies thought the tournament’s final game would have had more to offer but instead, spectators were given the ‘Marvin Josiah Show’. Josiah opened the score sheets, netting Showstoppers’ first goal in the 4th minute but five minutes later, Owen McGarrell equalised for Stewartville Gunners. McGarrell’s goal had given his team’s supporters the perception that the game would be a closely fought one but Josiah had only just begun. The tournament’s MVP went on to score three consecutive goals (24th, 25th, and 27th minutes) to put the eventual winners up 4-1. Gideon Payne’s goal in the 35th minute added more misery for the Gunners whose facial expressions told their supporters it’s time to wave the white flag. McGarrell scored his second goal of the evening in the 36th minute and Marvin Henry’s goal in the 38th minute tried to revive the eventual losers but Anthony Sancho slammed home Showstoppers’ final goal of the game in the 40th minute to seal an emphatic win for the

champions. Meanwhile, New Road Eagles, who had only lost once in the tournament, rebounded to slaughter De Kinderen Village in the third place game. Simon Emmanuel scored a hattrick (17th, 21st 28th) as well as Jermaine Junior (9th, 23rd, 25rd) while Paul Rodney’s double in the 11th and 37th minutes along Ravi Chand’s 38th minute strike did the damage for New Road Eagles. An own goal in the 19th resulted in De Kinderen Village getting their lone goal and were rewarded with $25 000 for their fourth place finish. “This was truly an exciting tour-

nament,” said coordinator Collin ‘BL’ Aaron, adding “We want to thank all the sponsors and the people who turned up every night that helped make the tournament a major success.” According to Aaron, “this is the first time a tournament like this is played on the West Side and hopefully it wouldn’t be the last. We have some other stuff in store that everyone will be hearing about shortly but again I’m very grateful for the support shown.” After the game, patrons were entertained by Slingerz Family and local Dancehall sensations Jory and Jackie Jaxx.

Cilic crushes Nishikori to claim U.S. Open title

By Steve Keating

NEW YORK, (Reuters) - Croatia's Marin Cilic swept past Japan's Kei Nishikori 6-3 6-3 6-3 to win the U.S. Open yesterday and reach the pinnacle of the sport one year after a doping ban kept him out of the year's final grand slam. The big-serving Croatian overwhelmed a weary Nishikori in one hour, 54 minutes to clinch a ruthless victory and deny his 10th-seeded opponent's bid to become the first Asian man to win a grand slam. With the win, 14th seed Cilic becomes the first Croatian to win one of the sport's four grand slam championships since his coach Goran Ivanisevic celebrated a Wimbledon victory in 2001. "This is all hard work in these last several years and especially this last year," said Cilic. "My team has brought something special to me, especially Goran, we were working really hard but the most important thing he brought
