Guyana board president quits after home is raided

The president of the Guyana Cricket Board, Ramsay Ali, has resigned after police and court officials raided his home, and the homes of other board officials. The raids were the latest development in an ongoing impasse between the GCB and the Guyana government.

Ali said the court officials seized financial documents and other papers from his office and home, and from the homes of board secretary Anand Senasie, former president Chetram Singh, and another trustee, Lionel Jaikarran.

Guyana's assistant police commissioner Seelall Persaud confirmed the raids had occurred on Monday, February 27. "Police were there only to ensure peace was kept," he told AP.
