- Interviews in progress
The new head of the Customs Anti Narcotic Unit (CANU) may be appointed soon as interviews are being conducted to fill the position.

Minister of Home Affairs, Clement Rohee, made this disclosure during a media conference Tuesday at his Brickdam Office.

He said if the person selected has not been subjected to a polygraph test then he/she will have to undergo same when the next round is done in six months time.

The Minister said that the interviews are being done with individuals already employed by CANU and others, noting that it was important that “the so-called “3 ‘C’s” be stamped out,” he said. These are collusion, corruption and connivance.

President Jagdeo had earlier indicated that CANU Officers who underwent polygraph testing and failed will be sent home. The contracts of nine officers, including the former acting Head of the Unit, have since been terminated.
