Civil Society activist Dr Phillip Mozart Thomas who sued former President Donald Ramotar and others for $2.5 billion for libel and slander is now wanted by the Guyana Police Force for questioning in relation to fraud which occurred between 2016-02-04 and 2016-05-20.
It is unclear what the nature of the investigations.

Thomas who was the Chairman of the Guyana National Council on Public Policy, Inc. (GNCPP) and the Guyana National Civil Society, Inc. Council (GNCSC) in December 2014 was accused of hosting a two day summit at the Arthur Chung Conference Centre and owed the state -owned Conference Centre GYD$4 million for use of the facility at Liliendaal.
Thomas had said that the Conference Centre was booked for the 17th -19th of December, 2014 and that documents requiring conflicting amounts, one billing him $5million and the other billing him $4.2million were sent to him. Neither is accurate, he had said, as they bill him for three day usage and other services he did not use since he ended up using the Centre on the 17th alone.

However, the Conference Centre in a statement had offered a different story stating that its initial bill was approximately $6.6million for the three days, of which he was required to make a 50%down payment and pay the remaining amount 15:00hrs on the 17th. The Management of the conference centre had noted that Thomas’ initial bill was eventually lowered to$4.2 million after factoring in several concessions.

The Conference Centre reportedly said that the GNCPP must pay the full cost since Thomas did not give official notice that he was no longer using the facility on the 18th and 19thand therefore breached his contract. Anyone with information that may lead to the arrest of Thomas is asked to contact the police on telephone numbers 227-2128, 226-1389, 226-7065, 225-6411, 225-2227, 225-0575, 911 or the nearest police station. All information will be treated with the strictest confidence
