Barima Ferry Inquiry Commission Announced | Guyana News
Description
President Irfaan Ali unveils a five-member international commission to investigate the deadly MV Barima ferry disaster, which claimed 73 lives. Composed of top experts in law, marine engineering, and maritime safety, the team will conduct an independent, thorough probe into every aspect—from loading procedures and vessel maintenance to crew actions and rescue coordination. While the government vows transparency, opposition leaders demand inclusion, public livestreaming, and accountability for officials, warning past reports have been hidden and calling for administrative leave for involved ministers to ensure the inquiry is about truth, not optics.
