Georgetown: Guyana Defence Force medical personnel are presently carrying out tests on ranks at Eteringbang to determine if they are indeed using narcotics which resulted in their robbing of mining camps.
Chief of Staff Commodore Gary Best said “the GDF wishes to categorically state that any GDF ranks found culpable of this dastardly act will face the full brunt of Court Martial Proceedings or the Civil Law. Further, the Guyana Defence Force intends to ask for the maximum penalty for anyone found guilty,” the army had stated I a press release on Monday.
It is alleged that on Friday last five heavily armed soldiers went into a Cuyuni mining district at an area called Devil’s Hole, where they relieved a group of Brazilian miners of raw gold after getting high on the marijuana they had seized earlier from drug pushers on the nearby Julian Ross Landing.
