Open letter to President Donald Ramotar

Dear President Ramotar,

I am writing on behalf of some former employees of the Guyana Revenue Authority. We were charged in the Polar Beer fiasco involving some employees of the Guyana Revenue Authority and Fidelity Investments Inc./Kong Inc.Your Excellency, our innocence was vindicated by the court when all the charges against us were dismissed and all of us were discharged for want of prosecution on 2011-05-31. There has been no appeal in this case.

President Ramotar, although these charges were dismissed since 2011, we were not reinstated in our jobs and we have been unable to secure alternative employment because of the negative stigma attached to us. Our dreams, aspirations and families have been shattered and we are now a contemptible liability to our country. We are young professionals, academics and parents who have resisted the temptations of migrating to another country. We prefer to stay in our beloved country and utilise our talent and resources towards its development.

Honourable President, we respectfully request your urgent intervention to reinstate us in our jobs so that we may have the opportunity to serve our country and be productive citizens.

Your Excellency, at your inauguration, you promised to be a fair and just President for all. We are convinced that you are a leader who not only cares, but who would deliver on his promises. We put our trust and confidence in your good judgment.

Respectfully yours,
ROOPNARINE RAMKISHUN
