Busi­ness­man Dan­ny Guer­ra has been ac­cused of plot­ting to as­sas­si­nate a Gov­ern­ment Min­is­ter, which led to his ar­rest on a Pre­ven­tive De­ten­tion Or­der (PDO) on Wednes­day.

Al­though the PDO signed by Home­land Se­cu­ri­ty Min­is­ter Roger Alexan­der on No­vem­ber 19 was not gazetted up to yes­ter­day, it al­leged that the 50-year-old of North Oropouche Road in San­gre Grande posed a clear and present threat to pub­lic safe­ty.

The pro­pri­etor of DG Homes, a re­al es­tate com­pa­ny with hous­ing de­vel­op­ments in sev­er­al parts of the coun­try, was tak­en to the East­ern Cor­rec­tion­al Re­ha­bil­i­ta­tion Cen­tre (ECRC) in San­ta Rosa fol­low­ing his ar­rest by of­fi­cers of the Spe­cial In­ves­ti­ga­tions Unit (SIU) on No­vem­ber 20.
