‘E’ Division spanking new state of the art headquarters in Linden is 50% complete. The new building is being reconstructed inside the compound of the Mackenzie Police Station.
According to Commander, Senior Superintendent Fazil Karimbaskh, work commenced last December; the former structure was demolished and a more modern policing facility, equipped with all modern amenities is being constructed.
This new building is made possible through an $80 million loan from the Government of Guyana, through the Inter- American Development Bank (IDB).
‘E’ Division Commander Fazil Karimbaksh said that the project is expected to take up to five months to be completed. The larger, two-storied facility which is being constructed will measure 135 feet by 45 feet.
Commander Karimbaksh said that he is satisfied with the work. “The work is going according to schedule. They’re doing the departments, then they will put the upper flat and the roof. They’re moving apace; we hope it is completed on time, according to schedule.”
The various departments at the Mackenzie Police Station are currently housed in other buildings in the compound while construction is ongoing.
