ASSASSIN INSPECTOR? New footage appears to show Guyana’s Special Branch Head, Senior Superintendent Prem Narine, opening fire on a moving vehicle carrying Opposition Leader Azruddin Mohamed, firing on the line of site of his own men… The surveillance recording from the October 12, 2026 incident shows Narine standing near his residence before raising his firearm and discharging several shots towards Mohamed’s passing car. Police previously claimed Narine came under fire, took cover and returned fire. However, the latest footage reportedly shows no visible gunfire from Mohamed’s vehicle and raises questions about Narine’s account. Was this self-defence, reckless policing or an attempted assassination? Mohamed’s lawyers have alleged an assassination attempt, but that allegation has not been established in court. The footage has not been independently authenticated through a publicly disclosed forensic examination. The fundamental question remains: Was the Opposition Leader a threat, or was his life threatened by those sworn to protect the public? When the country’s senior security officials open fire, accountability cannot be optional.
