The Guyana Police Force (GPF) has released a firm statement regarding the extradition of Rickford Burke, despite a recent ruling by the Chief Justice concerning his legal challenge. The GPF asserts that it possesses strong and undeniable evidence implicating Burke in extorting funds from a local businessman.
The case is currently under review, and police are seeking additional legal guidance on potential new charges. As Burke is currently outside of Guyana’s jurisdiction, the GPF plans to initiate extradition proceedings in accordance with the Fugitive Offenders Act, following the Chief Justice’s ruling.
This ongoing situation emphasizes the GPF’s commitment to addressing the matter seriously and ensuring justice is served. Further updates will be provided as the legal process unfolds.
Stay tuned for more news as it develops.
