…in wake of Guyanese pilot being detained in Puerto Rico

President Donald Ramotar has never travelled on a private jet to Puerto Rico or Brazil with former President Bharrat Jagdeo, as has been insinuated by an Opposition-aligned online media entity, Demerara Waves.

On Wednesday, the online news site published what well-placed sources said were malicious reports about Ramotar and Jagdeo previously travelling on the jet belonging to Khamraj Lall, who was apprehended in Puerto Rico following a whopping US$620,000 cash discovery on the aircraft when he landed over the weekend.

The sources said the reports were all erroneous and seemed to be targeting Jagdeo for reasons only those writing the articles would know.

 

When contacted, Ramotar himself stated that, contrary to the reports, he and the former President have never been on a private jet together to the US island of Puerto Rico or neighbouring Brazil.

Observers said there appeared to be perennial efforts aimed at dragging Jagdeo’s name into matters that he had absolutely no knowledge of, or any interest in. Ramotar also confirmed that he and the former President never travelled together on a private jet overseas.

The President, however, noted that he had previously chartered Lall’s aircraft to travel to Caribbean destinations on two occasions and once to Brazil, but reiterated that it was never with Jagdeo. On this note, he explained that these trips were official state visits to participate in conferences.

Lall, a Guyanese businessman was arrested by United States law enforcement authorities after the cash was found on his private plane last weekend in Puerto Rico. He was detained on November 22 on his way to Guyana after stopping to refuel the US island.

During the stop, US Customs officers reportedly became suspicious and the aircraft was promptly grounded by airport authorities. While on the ground, the officers reportedly asked Lall to report how much cash he was carrying.

Lall, who was travelling with his father and the pilot of the aircraft, is believed to have initially said only US$5000 between himself and his father, but later allegedly said they had US$12,000. On closer inspection of the plane, officers found US$150,000 wrapped in plastic bags and a blanket under an exit seat.

As the search continued, several black garbage bags with another US$470,000 in cash was found in a compartment near the engine. Lall reportedly admitted that all the money was his and that his father knew nothing about it.

Lall is the owner of KLX Logistics Inc, located in Jersey City, New Jersey in the US, which offers trucking and warehouse services, and was operational from 1995 to 2010. In Guyana, he owns the Kaylee’s Service Station at Coverden, East Bank Demerara, as well as a limousine service. He also operates a courier service out of the Cheddi Jagan International Airport, Timehri.

Lall migrated to the United States of America some 30 years ago in pursuit of his dreams in aviation. He graduated from the College of Aeronautics with a Bachelor’s Degree in Technology and Engineering, and later obtained his pilot’s licence.

He has been flying since 1994 and holds a PIC (Pilot-In-Command) type rating approved by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). He worked for Pan American Airlines as an Engineer for five years until the airline closed its operations in 1991.

For the past 15 years, he has been freelancing with Ringwood Airport in New Jersey as a flight instructor.

Where is it written or said in that many words that Ramotar travelled together on the same plane at the same time with Jagdeo? The president is feeling guilty by association and is trying to accuse the opposition of insinuation, whilst coming up with some lame excuses as to the reasons for his presence in the plane at various times. Who is buying his excuse? I bet you the BFI and US Narco division doesn't.

I like this advice I got in my youth: when in doubt, check.

I just re-read the Demerara Waves report and found this: "Sources said that Ramotar and Jagdeo have used the executive jet service to fly to Puerto Rico and Brazil. In the case of a trip to Puerto Rico, both presidents had travelled together. Nothing illegal was ever found on those flights."

So, Mr T, we have to concede that Ramotar is within his rights to set the record straight.

There is a distinction between "sources say" and the "opposition accusing the president through insinuation". At no stage has Demerara Waves reported that the president travelled together with Ramotar, or that the source of their information was the opposition. They reported what informationw as provided to them. that includes that Lall was arrested, and a plane was seized. So far the only excuse offered is that it isn't true that Ramotar and jagdeo travelled on the same plane at the same time. Worryingly then is that the president has not attempted to deny any other part of what is being reported by various media outlets around the Caribbean. One can easily draw a lot of conclusion from that.

Mr.T

They are saying they never travelled together to these specific locations but they are not saying who used the service when and how.

 

Very state secret type operation and now all of a sudden Cabinet approved the building of the US 1 Million dollar hangar. Very under cover.

 

How come that was not celebrated in the press as a major investment and major kudos to the govt?

 

Trying to keep it unda cover and trying to keep the population uninformed.

The plane was a getaway aircraft for the PPP CROOKS when the end comes. Fetching out dem thiefing money from the treasury.

 

The Americas must have known about the money before hand. They were very specific. They might know a lot more.

When contacted, Ramotar himself stated that, contrary to the reports, he and the former President have never been on a private jet together to the US island of Puerto Rico or neighbouring Brazil.

The President, however, noted that he had previously chartered Lall’s aircraft to travel to Caribbean destinations on two occasions and once to Brazil, but reiterated that it was never with Jagdeo. On this note, he explained that these trips were official state visits to participate in conferences.

Lall, a Guyanese businessman was arrested by United States law enforcement authorities after the cash was found on his private plane last weekend in Puerto Rico. He was detained on November 22 on his way to Guyana after stopping to refuel the US island.

During the stop, US Customs officers reportedly became suspicious and the aircraft was promptly grounded by airport authorities. While on the ground, the officers reportedly asked Lall to report how much cash he was carrying.

Lall, who was travelling with his father and the pilot of the aircraft, is believed to have initially said only US$5000 between himself and his father, but later allegedly said they had US$12,000. On closer inspection of the plane, officers found US$150,000 wrapped in plastic bags and a blanket under an exit seat.

As the search continued, several black garbage bags with another US$470,000 in cash was found in a compartment near the engine. Lall reportedly admitted that all the money was his and that his father knew nothing about it.

Lall is the owner of KLX Logistics Inc, located in Jersey City, New Jersey in the US, which offers trucking and warehouse services, and was operational from 1995 to 2010. In Guyana, he owns the Kaylee’s Service Station at Coverden, East Bank Demerara, as well as a limousine service. He also operates a courier service out of the Cheddi Jagan International Airport, Timehri.

Lall migrated to the United States of America some 30 years ago in pursuit of his dreams in aviation. He graduated from the College of Aeronautics with a Bachelor’s Degree in Technology and Engineering, and later obtained his pilot’s licence.

He has been flying since 1994 and holds a PIC (Pilot-In-Command) type rating approved by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). He worked for Pan American Airlines as an Engineer for five years until the airline closed its operations in 1991.

For the past 15 years, he has been freelancing with Ringwood Airport in New Jersey as a flight instructor.

 

 

President Rammo fish up the opposition once again and exposed their lies.

 

Gone are the days of the AFC and their supporters attempting to sell snake oil.

I guess he forget there is something called a photograph that would illustrate his lie. If he could lie on this who can believe him on anything else?

Exactly how?  Ramotar admitted that he used the plane.  Whether he used it with Jagdeo is beside the point.  In addition he didn't deny the strong privileges that this man enjoys at CBJIA where his planes, cargo and passengers arrive and depart without being subjected to normal immigration/customs procedures.

Dude, that is how the proceeds of illegal dealings get back to the principals. He was more likely a courier doing a service. According to a woman who was recently caught with 12k of undeclared money she was being paid 1K to transport the money

There are laws governing taking money out of a country like the US. Lall has broken several. More than one agency is going to go after him. Remember, Al Capone got sent down for tax evasion, not for the other cries he committed. Tax evasion allows the IRS to clean you out if you can't explain where you got your money from, and even where receipts or proof of purchase is from anything you own.
