A former Guyana Water Incorporated (GWI) supervisor was yesterday charged with defrauding the utility company of over $1.2 million.
Dexter McKenzie, said to have been the Customer Experience supervisor, was faced with a total of 20 charges when he appeared before Principal Magistrate Sherdel Isaacs-Marcus in Georgetown.
The first three charges alleged that while being entrusted by GWI with three Republic Bank cheques, for the total amount of $214,000, in order that he may give same to Shane Samuels, he fraudulently converted them to his own use and benefit.
