Ferry Disaster in Guyana Under Investigation | Guyana News

Published 3 weeks, 2 days ago
Description

A ferry carrying over 100 people capsized in Guyana, sparking a massive investigation after rescuers found dozens not on the official manifest—and two crew members, including the captain, tested positive for cannabis. Authorities are now probing every aspect: passenger loading, cargo, safety protocols, and whether drug use contributed to the vessel’s sudden, catastrophic sinking in under a minute. The Prime Minister vowed legal action for any wrongdoing, while officials called the manifest discrepancies “criminal action.” With 35 of 67 rescued not listed, the search continues with advanced tech and expanded resources as the nation grapples with the human toll and systemic failures.
