Member of Parliament for the People’s Progressive Party and former Permanent Secretary, Nigel Dharamlall, is currently under probe by Police investigators on the East Coast of Demerara following a complaint that he used a firearm to threaten the life of a foreign employee of the IDB office in Guyana.

Reports indicate that the incident occurred just over a week ago after Dharamlall reportedly saw the IDB employee talking to his ex-wife in a car.

He reportedly whipped out his weapon and threatened to shoot the man. A complaint was filed against him at the Sparendaam Police Station.

Divisional Police Commander and Assistant Commissioner Marlon Chapman confirmed to News Source on Monday afternoon that a complaint was indeed made, an investigation was conducted and legal advice is now being sought on the issue.

He would offer no other detail.

The Member of Parliament provided a statement to the investigators as part of the probe.

But when contacted today for a comment, Mr. Dharamlall said “I don’t know what you are speaking about. I have no clue. The Police might be better to speak on that”.

 He then disconnected the call.
