FOLLOWING the news that Anand Goolsarran, retroactively resigned as president of Transparency International Guyana Institute (TIGI) I could not help think he did so in an act of cowardice, scared to confront the scandal involving his good friend Glenn Lall. It appears Goolsarran prefers to resign than to give an honest condemnation to his friend, his friend’s wife and Navin Sankar.

There has been numerous letters calling on Mr. Goolsarran and the TIGI, to call out and condemn the perpetrators of the illegal acts involved in the duty free concession scandal. Instead of responding to these letters, Goolsarran resigns, retroactively!

So I once again ask Goolsarran: Is it ok for Glenn Lall to use Sankar’s parents’ remigrant duty free vehicles as their own? Is it fair to the hard working tax payers in Guyana to be cheated by this known questionable character?

Goolsarran, you have pegged yourself as the anti-corruption police. Let’s see you get to work and call out ALL persons engaged in corrupt behaviour!
