International manhunt launched for contractor Omar Malik over abandoned housing projects in Guyana

IMG-20260614-WA0010

Omar Malik, whose company DreamVu Homes allegedly abandoned housing projects for young professionals, is being pursued by INTERPOL, the FBI and regional security body CARICOM IMPACS, the Central Housing and Planning Authority (CH&PA) said.

Malik left the country without fulfilling his contractual obligations for the construction of Young Professional Homes or settling outstanding financial matters, the authority said.

CH&PA said it issued public notices in August 2025, through social media and national newspapers, urging Malik to report to the ministry. When he failed to comply, formal criminal reports were filed with the Guyana Police Force.

Due to Malik’s departure from the jurisdiction, the authority’s Enforcement and Compliance Department subsequently engaged INTERPOL, the FBI and CARICOM IMPACS, sharing relevant information for immediate review and cross-border action.

CH&PA said it has maintained contact with affected families and continues to explore all lawful options to assist those impacted.

The authority dismissed criticism that regulators had been inactive, calling such assertions “entirely false” and warning against what it described as politically motivated attempts to exploit the situation.

Investigations are ongoing.
