GEORGETOWN, Guyana– Opposition Leader Azruddin Mohamed has made explosive allegations that investigators ignored evidence allegedly linking a vehicle in the Ricardo Fagundes murder investigation to an associate of convicted drug trafficker Roger Khan, while instead launching what he describes as a coordinated effort to falsely implicate him and his former employees.

In a lengthy social media address released Tuesday, Mohamed claimed that documents already in the possession of investigators identify the purchaser of a white Toyota Fielder wagon, allegedly connected to the Fagundes investigation, as Shamroy Omar Stewart, whom Mohamed described as a former security guard and close associate of Roger Khan. Mohamed questioned why police have allegedly failed to aggressively pursue that lead while repeatedly reopening the investigation to focus on him.

Mohamed went further, alleging that the Regional Security System (RSS), which assisted in the investigation, documented inconsistencies in statements given by Roger Khan following the murder. He claimed the report concluded that Khan inaccurately stated that Fagundes was driving the vehicle on the night of the killing, despite CCTV footage allegedly showing Khan behind the wheel. Mohamed also claimed Khan failed to disclose the presence of a third person in the vehicle. Based on those alleged inconsistencies, Mohamed asked why investigators were not questioning Khan instead of targeting him.
