Terrence Williams, a former Ministry of Health Drug Bond attendant, is committed to stand trial in Guyana’s High Court on a charge of money laundering. According to reporting from iNews Guyana and Kaieteur News, the matter proceeds following action by the Special Organised Crime Unit (SOCU), which secured the committal for trial. The cases describe that the committal hearing takes place at the Diamond Magistrates’ Court before Magistrate Wanda Fortune, sitting on Monday, 8 June. The magistrate determines that there is sufficient evidence to send Williams to the High Court to answer the money laundering charge. Both outlets frame the alleged offence as being connected to the Ministry of Health Drug Bond. The reports do not provide further details in the excerpts about the amount involved, specific transactions, or the basis of the prosecution case. As with committal proceedings generally, the decision reflects that the court finds enough evidence to place the matter before the High Court, where the charge will be addressed during trial.
