Peeping Tom, you should either reveal yourself or remain silent

I have read with utter disgust the self-serving article captioned “abuse of office”, written by a self-appointed anonymous crusader and protector of public morals Mr. Peeping Tom. This however is an absurd contradiction, for how can one begin to preach about upright behaviour and moral rectitude when such a person hides behind a pen name.How can someone point fingers at others and masks himself in a cloak of anonymity, appointing himself a public prosecutor and pronouncing on the guilt of public officers whom he feels, disclosed information pertaining to the acts of skullduggery of his paymaster.
This itself calls into question the benefits Mr. Peeping Tom is receiving and are these benefits being taxed and reported under a pen name too. I call upon the Commissioner-General (since this so called “masked defender of public morals”, is without a doubt accusing him of leaking information) to have this daily columnist reveal himself to the Guyana Revenue Authority (GRA) and have his Income Tax returns filed under his true identity.
If he fails to do so he should be hauled before the Parliamentary Committee as he seems to be in possession of quite a lot of information as to who could have been the perpetrators of such a grave misdemeanor.
It’s unfortunate that this champion of “high moral values” has not yet pronounced whether it is an act of great deception to deliberately mask, like he does his identity, the origin of imports to cheat the poor people of this country out of their entitlement to receive state benefits, or whether it is an act of cowardice, disgust and depravity to hide behind two pensioners, stealing their benefits and in so doing robbing the State coffers of over $100 Million in taxes.
Where other than in Guyana would someone shamelessly defend such a dastardly and criminal act in preference to having the exposer be disciplined for such exposures? By analogy is the peeping Tom saying that if someone were to capture on camera the commission of an act of murder being committed without the consent of the person committing the act, that such an act of filming is illegal and by extension evidence cannot be used to successfully prosecute the offender?
Moreover, how can the Peeping Tom be so sure that the information came from the GRA in the first place? From what I am told the remigrants first submitted documents to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Furthermore, the Auditor General is engaged in an audit of the documents of all remigrants for the past 7 years.
Didn’t the GRA write the Trinidad authorities in the matter of using a false label on imports criminally used to disguise the true origin of the imports of Glen Lall’s newspaper outfit? All of these suggest that the information could have emanated from many sources in possession of the evidence of tax frauds.
Mr. Lall and his wife should thank their lucky stars they are not residing in the United States of America as such offences are subject to mandatory jail terms.
Every day we are witnessing the public disclosure of the salary and benefits of both the sitting and the former Presidents in no lesser a place than the Parliament. These are the most important persons in the country by any stretch of the imagination. Therefore what is the big deal with putting in the public domain the acts of deception of someone who appointed himself to defend acts of wrong doing by others? This is not a matter for the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) and other service committees of the Parliament to determine.
The Guyanese public awaits the revelation of your identity and more unmasking of persons who hold themselves out to stand on high moral grounds. You need to know that the same Parliament is being financed by taxpayers, which is the same cause you Mr. Peeping Tom, are attempting to subvert.
