The police today said that fugitive drug convict Barry Dataram has been handed over to them by the Surinamese authorities.

A statement from the police follows:

Following the arrest of Barry Dataram, a fugitive in Suriname and his handing over to local authorities, the Acting Commissioner of Police wishes to acknowledge the excellent collaboration between local law enforcement units and our counterparts in Suriname.

While he is fully aware of the same quality of collaboration from Government to Government, that which occurred between 13:00h. yesterday and 09:00h. this morning, represented the best efforts and sends a clear message that with the use of science and technology in law enforcement and personnel who are consummate professionals, the public interest is well served.

On the law enforcement front, we wish to sincerely thank our colleagues in Suriname.

Dataram was using Guyana passport with false name that was issued in 2013

The passport was issued on April 15, 2013 and appeared to have been issued in Georgetown. It bears the passport number R0376916 and would have expired in 2018.

Dataram was using Guyana passport with false name that was issued in 2013

Convicted drug lord and recaptured fugitive Barry Dataram, was found in Suriname with a Guyana Passport that was issued to him in the name of David Persaud. The passport bears the image of Dataram but with the David Persaud name.

The passport was issued on April 15, 2013 and appeared to have been issued in Georgetown. It bears the passport number R0376916 and would have expired in 2018.

Just recently, the General Secretary of the opposition People’s Progressive Party and former Home Affairs Minister, Clement Rohee, broadsided the government over its drug fighting effort after Dataram was able to escape from Guyana while his drug possession case neared the end.

But it was Rohee who was in charge of the Home Affairs Ministry in 2013 when Dataram was issued the passport with the false name.  The Passport Office came under the Home Affairs Ministry’s portfolio.

It is suspected that Dataram may have used the passport with the false name to travel to Suriname via the backtrack route three weeks ago and was attempting to use a foreign passport to leave Suriname.

He was arrested by Surinamese Police on Friday along with his wife. The two were found hiding out in a house in the neighbouring country.

They were both brought back to Guyana this morning by Surinamese Police and handed over to local Law Enforcement.

The two went on the run just as their cocaine possession trial was nearing an end. They had been charged along with two others, after over 225 pounds of cocaine was found in Dataram’s Diamond, East Bank Demerara house. They were both on $4 million bail each when they decided to bolt from Guyana.

In their absence, Dataram was found guilty and sentenced to five years in jail and fined $164 Million while Boodnarine was found not guilty.

Two other men who were charged along with the couple, were also found not guilty. The Customs Anti Narcotics Unit has already appealed the not guilty verdicts.

Similarly, all those Imams whose mosques breed terrorists are responsible for the terrorists actions of these followers.  The connection is even stronger as many do preach anti-infidel hatred which some of their followers act out!!

Nice collaboration between Suriname and Guyana cops indeed. Keep it up.

And...that leader of Suriname should be in jail for eliminating a bunch of labor leaders in the 1980s...his son was already convicted by the US

Don't bother with Suriname. Ask yourself why Dataram was on the bosom of the PPP.
