The PNCR condemns in the strongest term the demolition of the Party’s Regional Building at Lethem by the agents and thugs of the People’s Progressive Party and the Irfaan Ali-led regime under the watch of the Guyana Police Force. Items belonging to the Party that were in the building were also seized during this unlawful operation. The PNCR deems the government’s action as state terrorism.
This action is consistent with the pattern of disrespect for the rule of law and democracy that has been displayed by the Irfaan Ali-led regime. Clearly, their belief is that they are above the law and accountable to any of the state’s institutions. These actions are dangerously provocative and it is clear that the PPP’s aim is for total dominance and control. Moreover, this criminal action is inconsistent with Irfaan Ali’s mantra of “One Guyana. The Party has been in possession of this property for approximately fifty (50) years and its rights to ownership and possession have never been disputed.
The Party has instructed its officials in the Region to make a police report and calls upon the Commissioner of Police to ensure that there is a fair and impartial investigation into this matter. The Party is in the process of informing the diplomatic community of this egregious act by the PPP/C government.
