The Guyana Sugar Corporation had launched an investigation earlier this year after it was discovered that 240 tonnes of sugar was unaccounted for from the Rose Hall Estate and this led to two senior personnel being fired.

Stabroek News reported yesterday that GuySuCo last week fired a production manager and head lab technician attached to the Rose Hall Estate after claims of sugar going missing sometime last crop.

While the sugar corporation is yet to make any official statement on the matter, information gathered revealed that on Thursday workers were informed that the estate’s production manager and the head lab technician were let go. They were also informed of the person who would be replacing the production manager.
