BREAKING NEWS- HGP NIGHTLY NEWS- Permanent secretary of the Ministry of the Presidency Omar Shariff was moments ago arrested by ranks of the special organised crime unit ( SOCU) in connection with what could very well be the biggest money laundering and tax evasion case to hit Guyana.

The Permanent secretary who is said to be the owner of 5 ' lucrative' businesses in Guyana and who was recently debarred from banking at a city bank since he couldn't explain his source of income is also featuring in the more than $600 million fraud that was uncovered at the former Ministry of Public Service, following the change in government earlier this year.
