“The penalty for terrorism under the section quoted by the Commissioner (of Police Clifton Hicken) is death, and we will be pursuing that. “… We will be making a case for the death penalty,” Walrond told reporters. On Tuesday morning, Guyana’s President Dr. Irfaan Ali reminded the public that any person who commits a terrorist act, especially if it results in the death of another person, can be sentenced to death once convicted, according to Guyana’s law. Walrond said she is sure President Ali will greenlight such actions. “One life, Guyanese life, is still too much. I am absolutely sure that our Commander in Chief, our President, will sign off on that order (for the death penalty),” she said. At the Tuesday night press conference, which dealt with the gas station explosion that claimed the life of six-year-old Soroya Bourne and injured several others, Mr. Hicken said detectives are establishing evidence to support charges for acts of terrorism.
