The Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), Shalimar Ali-Hack, today advised that Guyanese-born, Ronley Floyd Bynoe, was extradited from Guyana to the United States of America (USA) earlier today. He is expected to face fraud and other charges in the US.

In a statement this afternoon, the DPP said, Mr. Bynoe was taken from the Georgetown Camp Street Prison, where he was held on remand pending the extradition, at 9pm on Tuesday.

He was then escorted under security to the Cheddi Jagan international Airport (CJIA) where he was handed over to two US Marshalls and placed on an outgoing American Airlines flight bound for the US at 1:30AM.

Bynoe allegedly committed the offences of Misuse of a Social Security Number, Aggravated Identity Theft and Bank Fraud.

In September 2023, a criminal indictment was filed in the District Court of the Northern District of Ohio for him to stand trial by a grand jury and based on the charges, an arrest warrant was issued, but could not be served because Bynoe had fled the US to Guyana.

ln November 2025, the US government made a request for Bynoe’s extradition to the Guyana Government through the Ministry of Home Affairs, which sought and obtained legal advice from the DPP’s Office on how to proceed with the extradition request from US government.

On 16th February, Minister of Home Affairs, Oneidge Walrond signed and issued the Authority to Proceed with the extradition.

On 18th February, 2026, Bynoe was arrested by local police and taken before Acting Chief Magistrate Faith McGusty at the Georgetown Magistrates’ Court, where he was informed of the extradition request made by the USA Authorities.

He consented to be extradited to the US without Court proceedings to face the multiple fraud charges.
