Guyana CJ to rule on Mohameds' extradition bid

The Mohamed duo is pulling every legal stunt possible to dodge American prison cells since acting Chief Justice Navindra Singh promised a verdict regarding their constitutional attack on the Fugitive Offenders Act. Azruddin and Nazar Mohamed petitioned the High Court to halt extradition efforts, sending them to face Miami prosecutors for alleged money laundering. Defense attorneys claim the Authority to Proceed issued via Home Affairs Minister Oneidge Walrond and Attorney General Anil Nandlall is invalid.

Magistrate Judy Latchman previously tossed a separate request from the businessmen after labeling the filing a waste of time, as higher courts already settled those issues.

Attorney General Nandlall characterized this latest move as a stall tactic designed to drag out the process because extradition statutes already contain safeguards for appeals.

US authorities claim Mohamed’s Enterprises hid massive amounts of yellow metal to dodge millions in duty taxes. The indictment follows sanctions linking the family to smuggling schemes.
