The Guyana Revenue Authority has announced that it has launched a full investigation into several of its own employees who are suspected to have aided and abetted in the transfer of several motor vehicles belonging to US sanctioned, Guyanese businessman and Opposition Member of Parliament, Azruddin Mohamed.

The GRA has indicated that the vehicle transfers took place between the 27th November and the 5th December, 2025 and were done in breach of regulations associated with the transfer of motor vehicles and in contravention of Anti money-laundering regulations.

According to the GRA, a perusal of the Authority’s records has revealed that the identical employees were responsible for the off premises examination of the vehicles, the lodgement and approval of the transfer documents, and the dispatch and receipt of payment to effect the transfers, with many of the transferees residing at similar addresses in Republic Park and Atlantic Gardens, and Hill Top, Timehri, East Bank Demerara.

The GRA has indicated that the investigations have revealed eleven such transfers, including luxury vehicles.

The Revenue Agency has made it clear that all participants in the “illegal activities” will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, with arrests expected shortly.

The GRA said its investigations are ongoing, and the Authority’s international partners have been apprised of the investigations.

Azruddin Mohamed and his father along with their businesses were sanctioned by the US Government in 2024 over allegations of money laundering, tax evasion and under-declaration of gold.

In 2025, the US Government announced an 11-count indictment against the Mohameds in relation to similar offences. The GRA had filed criminal charges against the father and son, but withdrew those charges after the United States officially filed an extradition request.

The Mohameds are currently fighting that extradition request.
