Despite claims by the Guyana Bank for Trade and Industry (GBTI) that it has now handed over to the Special Organised Crime Unit (SOCU) all the documents requested in its US$500 million Guyana Rice Development Board probe, with the exception of 12 letters, SOCU has argued that this is not the case and that there is more still outstanding.
With the exception of the letters, GBTI is claiming that it has handed over more than 11,000 documents, including those it had previously claimed were either lost or destroyed.
The Bank is now awaiting SOCU’s account of the outstanding documents it is contending are yet to be received.
