The Guyana Revenue Authority (GRA) said it has terminated several employees and their manager after they allegedly conspired with Mr. Azruddin Mohamed to transfer a vehicle in violation of the Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) Act.

The GRA, in collaboration with the Guyana Police Force, said legal proceedings will be brought against Mohamed and the employees. Mohamed has previously been sanctioned and indicted on allegations including fraud, customs violations, and money laundering.

Under Section 3(1)(a) of the AML/CFT Act, knowingly transferring property believed to be proceeds of crime constitutes money laundering. Section 3(4) states a prior conviction is not required to prove property is proceeds of crime.
