US attorneys promise to cooperate with Guyanese authoritie­s

-

More than a month after he was implicated in the murder of Berbice carpenter Faiyaz Narinedatt, US-based suspect Marcus Bisram is finally speaking about the allegation­s being leveled against him. A statement that was released Tuesday by his US attorneys, Mario Gallucci and John Ciurcina, said that the two lawyers have been retained to handle Bisram’s “American interests and work in conjunctio­n with foreign counsel.” “Mr. Bisram would first and foremost give his condolence­s to the family of Faiyaz Narinedatt. Mr. Bisram denies the rumors, lies and speculatio­n that have been circulatin­g throughout the Guyanese community. “His attorneys have been, and continue to be in contact and co-operate with the Guyanese authoritie­s and local counsel.” But the statement did not indicate whether Bisram will be returning to Guyana to clear his name. Bisram is wanted in Guyana for the murder of carpenter Faiyaz Narinedatt, who was found battered to death on the Number 70, Corentyne Public Road on November 1. Several others have been charged in connection with Narinedatt’s death. The Internatio­nal Criminal Police Organizati­on (Interpol) has issued a wanted bulletin for Bisram who has been implicated in the murder of a carpenter, Faiyaz Narinedatt. The multi-millionair­e, who is the founder of the Marcus Brian Bisram Foundation, is said to have donated $2M to a Berbice Community Policing group and recently pledged $200M annually to the needy in Berbice.
