The Guyana Police Force is investigating allegations circulating on social media that several police and immigration ranks operating along the Lethem Trail and in Lethem have been receiving payments to facilitate the movement of foreign nationals.

In statements reported by multiple outlets, the police say they have taken note of the publication and treat the claims as serious. The force says it is therefore looking into the matter to determine the accuracy of the allegations and whether misconduct occurred.

The sources focus mainly on the police response and do not provide details on who is accused, the number of ranks involved, or the evidence referenced in the social media post. While both outlets describe the same core allegation—payments tied to facilitating foreign nationals’ movement—they present it through the framing of the police investigation, without additional findings at the time of reporting.
