No extraditions to US this year, three fugitives have voluntarily returned – ministry

The Ministry of Home Affairs yesterday said that there has been no extradition to the US for this year so far but that three fugitives from justice had voluntarily chosen to return.

In a statement yesterday, the ministry said that the  term “extradition” was incorrectly used during a News Source broadcast on August 27, 2024.

It said that the three fugitives in question voluntarily chose to return to the United States rather than face deportation from Guyana to address their charges.
