(Kaieteur News) – The People’s National Congress Reform (PNCR) and A Partnership for National Unity (APNU) are seeking to breathe new life into a years-old investigation into President Irfaan Ali’s Long Creek farm, claiming that investigators under the former APNU+AFC administration had already completed a probe and recommended that the lands be repossessed and criminal charges considered.

In a statement on Friday, the opposition said the issue was not a new allegation but one that had been investigated by the former State Assets Recovery Agency (SARU) after the APNU+AFC government assumed office in 2015.

According to the PNCR/APNU, SARU’s investigation examined the operation of what was described as the “Irfaan Ali Long Creek Farm” and produced findings which investigators believed warranted legal action. However, the party contends that while broader fraud matters were pursued, the Long Creek investigation was ultimately left out.
