TAMESH JAGMOHAN - THE PPP OLIGARCH || GUYANA UNCUT DOCUMENTARY - YouTube

…And let me tell you this, we live in Hampton Court.

We are die hard PPP.

PPP!

We’ve never changed our vote.

In 2015 when it was $9,000 per bag, we still voted for PPP.

We’ve heard rumors of a tyrant in Region Two making life uncomfortable for some rice

farmers.

When we took a closer look; we have made some shocking discoveries.

The naked truth of one of Guyana's most influential businessmen is ugly.

He desires more than he possesses and it seems as though he is willing to get what he wants

at all cost.

Everyone who has tried to tell any part of this story in the past has felt the wrath

of the power he wields, but, this time it's different.

This time the story is being told by an anonymous group that seeks to be a voice for the voiceless.

You know us as "Guyana Uncut," or whatever the kids are calling it these days.

Rice farming is predominant on the Essequibo Coast, especially in a village called Hampton

Court.

Tamesh Jagmohan, is the principal of the El Dorado Trading Company, which is one of the

country's biggest mining companies, he also owns the Caricom Rice Mill Ltd, Pure Harvest

Inc., and the Hampton Court Airstrip among other businesses, and is suspected to be a

member of the PPP oligarchy where he holds great status and influence.

Anyone who attempts to point this out is silenced.

The same type of high-tech silencing that shut down the vice news investigation into

the favor broker we now know as Su.

On February 13, 2022, Jagmohan wrote to the current Minister of Home Affairs, Mr. Robeson

Benn, asking him if the state and its external agencies and authorities could conduct a thorough

investigation into him and his business so that he could be given a clean record that

would help him dispel any malice directed at him.

Jagmohan mentioned in the letter that he is a qualified gold dealer and exporter who has

been in business for over two decades.

In the letter, Jagmohan also stated that he has made major contributions to Guyana's economy

by remitting billions in royalties and taxes to the consolidated fund annually.

The businessman also added that the gold exporting business is fiercely competitive and that

he has been singled out by unknown assailants for systemic character assassination.

He went on to say that he is concerned that the alleged intentional attacks may harm his

firm and the economy of Guyana because of the delicate nature of his operation, which

involves the transportation of gold or money between countries.

As a result, he concluded by adding, "With this in mind, I would appreciate if the state

and its external agencies and authorities could initiate a thorough examination of me

and my business so that I can be issued with a "clean bill of health".

The fact that the letter was also CC'd to Mr. Clifton Hicken addressing him as the Commissioner

of Police, is very worrying.

Mr. Hicken was only appointed by the President and Commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces

on March 28, 2022, and the appointment became effective on Wednesday, March 30, 2022, before

Mr. Hicken’s appointment he was performing the duties of the Deputy Commissioner.

The former Acting Commissioner of Police Nigel Hoppy proceeded on his pre-retirement leave

on Sunday, March 27, 2022.

However, in another document which was shared by a Facebook page called, 'Exposed Corruption

in Guyana' it was stated that the NYFO had assessed that El Dorado Trading along with

Jagmohan and his associates were involved in trade-based money laundering involving

the import of gold.

We suspect that the NYFO being referenced is the United States Department of State New

York field office but were not able to independently verify.

The document further stated that the NYFO had also assessed that the gold was being

misclassified upon entry as non-dutiable scrap and or waste gold when it is semi-worked gold

or gold jewelry dutiable at an approximate duty rate of 5.5%.

This suspicion is shared among many high-level stakeholders in the mining industry.

On May 03, 2020, a column titled “PPP financier hosted the diplomatic mission on Election

Day” was written by veteran journalist Adam Harris who made several allegations against

the businessman was published.

Harris had written that on March 2, 2020, some diplomats traveled around the country

in the company of Gerry Gouveia, who was an accredited observer for the elections.

Harris noted that Gouveia who is a member of the Private Sector Commission (PSC), was

granted election observer status.

According to Harris the fact that on the Essequebo Coast, they were transported and hosted by

Jagmohan who he claimed is a financier of the People’s Progressive Party, was worrying.

Harris further alleged that Gouveia made the introduction and that he had called Jagmohan

to inform him of the need to accommodate the diplomats and transport them.

He disclosed that Jagmohan took the diplomats to almost every polling place on the Essequebo

Coast on Elections Day.

Further, he also stated that Jagmohan has been known to fund the party although, in

days gone by, the vice president sought to distance himself from the man on grounds that

the man was a drug dealer.

Further in that column, Harris had also asserted that Jagmohan had allegedly shipped some One

Million US Dollars’ worth of gold to Canada to pay Charrandass Persaud, at the behest

of the PPP, for Persaud’s vote on the no-confidence motion on December 18, 2018 which toppled

the former APNU government.

Harris claimed that gold was initially held up by the Guyana Gold Board but was eventually

released.

He also alleged that Jagmohan was one of three PPP financiers who each shipped five hundred

million dollars to the United Kingdom to pay Mercury a total of one point five billion

for election consultancy.

Mercury is a political consulting firm that uses data collected from internet users to

design strategic messaging to persuade voters.

Often times the messages are fallacious but are designed to target individuals based on

their interests, search activities and other personal information.

This approach has often been labeled as elections manipulation.

It is the same strategy that was used to get Donald Trump elected in the USA via a company

similar to mercury called Cambridge Analytica.

An examination revealed that one of the sums came from a Demerara Bank account and this

was after the ousted caretaker government investigators wanted to know the source of

the money and to whom it was shipped.

According to Harris what is also known is that the United States revoked Jagmohan’s

visa and blacklisted him.

Harris said, this is common knowledge in the embassy, and that it is also known by the

other embassies and the British High Commission.

Further, he said that when the United States Ambassador, Sarah Ann Lynch, accepted Jagmohan's

hospitality at his home on the Essequibo Coast, eyebrows went up.

After the column was published the businessman and Harris later had a confrontation and the

veteran journalist was hauled before the court.

One of the names in the Chronicle, Tamesh Jagmohan, got very angry.

He called me yesterday.

He was very abusive and threatening.

So, I was advised to come and make a formal report to CID.

Which I did this morning.

I gave them a statement and they have promised to make contact with him.

Even if they have to arrest him and bring him down for a confrontation.

On December 30, 2020, the Guyana News Network claimed that Jagmohan is also allegedly one

of the biggest international criminals who is being pursued by multiple law enforcement

agencies around the world.

GNN revealed that the US criminal investigation is being conducted by a task force that includes

the Federal Bureau of Investigations, Customs and Border Patrol, Justice Department, and

the United States Attorney for the Southern District of Florida.

The News agency also stated that the US Immigration authorities had revoked Jagmohan's US visa

on March 4, 2014, and banned him from traveling to the United States as their investigation

intensified, adding that the CBP and FBI are investigating Jagmohan's criminal activities

which they traced from Guyana to Venezuela, the United Kingdom, Trinidad & Tobago, China,

Canada, Queens and Brooklyn, New York, Newark and Jersey City, New Jersey, as well as Fort

Lauderdale and Orlando, Florida.

GNN further claimed that the Law enforcement authorities said that months of surveillance

revealed that Jagmohan also illegally smuggles low-grade Venezuelan gold into Guyana through

Region Two.

According to the GNN the Venezuelan gold is then mixed with Guyana gold and sold to the

Guyana Gold Board, and the US authorities have been scrutinizing dozens of Jagmohan's

workers and associates who are connected to his criminal enterprise.

Two months after Jagmohan asked the Minister to assist him with a "clean bill of health"

he along with his brother Suresh donated ten brand new spanking vehicles to the Guyana

Police Force in Region Two, on May 15, 2022.

Jagmohan was also accused of pulling down the Anna Regina Masjid Fence, and it was said

by a source that he allegedly paid cops so that they can release the suspect from their

custody that was caught tearing down the fence.

Meanwhile, a source close to Jagmohan's relatives revealed that the businessman had allegedly

tried poisoning one of his brothers by adding cocaine to his drink, which caused him to

become crippled in one of his arms.

In a shocking twist before Jagmohan's mother died, she revealed how he accused her of trying

to rob him after she asked him to return her property which he forcefully took away from

her.

He was laying on the bed and checked the documents and my account was straight.

Everything was straight.

I did not rob anyone.

The woman was heard saying she didn't rob him as he claimed, which caused her health

to allegedly get much worse since it came to her as a shock that her son would accuse

her of trying to rob him.

The woman claimed that she worked and built her house and all she wanted was for him to

return the property which he took from her before she dies so that she can leave shares

for her other children.

A letter even surfaced showing Jagmohan informing his father that he needs to pay him $9,300

per acre per annum for 10 acres of rice lands that he rents from him in Hampton Court, Essequibo

Coast.

Reports are that the rice farmers used to pay only $4,200 per acre per annum.

Not only his father but over seventy-five farmers claimed that they were terrorized

and bullied by Jagmohan to pay $15,000 per acre per annum for rice lands that they rent

from him in Hampton Court, Essequibo Coast, and according to those farmers, he is trying

to exploit them because they are poor, helpless and has no one to represent them.

Well I said we are doom.

He will do what he wants to do and we can't do nothing about it because we don't have

no rich friends to represent us.

This man betrayed us.

Deceived us

and then betrayed us.

deceived and betrayed us!

This is what really hurts me.

and the rest of farmers

I never expect a man to deceive me like this in my lifetime.

I never expected this.

In November 2021 several rice farmers were on record accusing the businessman of terrorizing

and wrongfully arresting them for simply saying that the price was

too much he is asking for since they have been facing numerous challenges with crops.

Tamesh Jagmohan sent a notice to me

he came with police to my house

him and his men along with police came to my house

I asked why are you here?

They told me that they are here to serve a notice for me to vacate the land

I asked which land?

I told them this is State land. How will you evict me from State land?

He told me I have seven days to come off the land via a written notice.

Seven days I have to get off the land or I will be sued for one million dollars

[Is that the notice?] Yes. This is the notice. Seven days I have to come off the land.

...and this is the lease that he got from Irfaan Ali

we are here over fifty years on this land and he wants to come and bully us off this land.

While the farmers were speaking out Jagmohan was formalizing an agreement with the Guyana

Defense Force so that they can use the Hampton Court Airstrip free of cost.

The GDF formalized the agreement on April 25, 2022.

The Chief-of-Staff, Brigadier Godfrey Bess, and Jagmohan inked a Memorandum of Understanding

which formalizes a pre-existing informal arrangement that has seen the use of the airstrip by the

Air Corps at no cost, for support of the Force’s location in that sector as well for instances

of provision of relief items.

We have long suspected Tamesh Jagmohan to be a member of the PPP oligarchy and there

are quite a handful of allegations against him that we simply could not ignore and we

wonder why is it that he is pleading with the Home Affairs Minister to assist him in

getting a clean record if he is innocent?

Which member of the PPP oligarchy should we investigate next?
