Funeral parlour owners accuse Top Cop of cronyism
The proprietor of the Lyken/Newburg funeral home is calling on the Ministry of Public Security to put out a tender for the collection of human remains on behalf of the state, to eliminate what is being described as cronyism by a senior official of the Guyana Police Force. Dr. Dawn Stewart is convinced that the instruction of the Commissioner of Police to have human remains taken to the new Memorial and Crematorium Gardens Funeral Parlour is arbitrary and has created an uneven playing field. Her position is supported by the owners of at least two other established funeral homes, who have accused the police administration of touting the dead.(Kaieteurnews.com/photo:Kaieteurnews.com)…[+]
