“I wish to state, categorically, that I am not a shareholder, executive nor a joint venture partner, have no interests in, nor am I financially connected with Superior Concrete Inc. I will neither condone nor participate in any illegal operation and I will not flout the laws of Guyana,” The businessman said in a statement.

Mr. Mekdeci said, his company was contracted by Superior Concrete Inc., but that does not mean he has ties to the company, since other companies were also contracted to provide services.

“My company was contracted to provide equipment and construction materials to the location leased by Superior Concrete Inc. Our company along with many other contractors used the access roads and we were the only company to conduct repairs to the road on three occasions.  Our involvement does not extend to any concrete batch plant or any other area. I therefore reiterate that I do not participate or condone the breaking of the laws of Guyana, and we will not be party to any illegality,” Mr, Meckdeci further noted in his statement.
