TIMEHRI - Today, August 6, 2015, the Central Immigration Office, Timehri, grounded an Insel Air carrier, which was scheduled to depart CJIA at o6:45 hrs.
According to reports, the aircraft was not permitted to depart CJIA until arrangements were made to transport eight Indian nationals out of the jurisdiction.
These nationals arrived in Guyana on July 19, 2015 but were refused entry into the country for various immigration reasons and have been in the custody of the Guyana Police Force since then.
The management of CJIA is investigating the incident and regrets any inconvenience caused to passengers booked on the said flight.
