UPDATE: Escaped Guyanese detainee found

The illegal Guyanese immigrant that escaped immigration custody yesterday has been recaptured by the authorities.
Deputy Chief Immigration Officer Nadia Demming-Hodge confirmed that the detainee Ianna Thomas is back in Immigration’s custody.

Thomas, a Guyanese national, escaped from the Immigration Department’s temporary detention facility at Hotel Castle Maria on Monday, August 22.

She was being detained there pending repatriation after having arrived in the territory illegally by sea in July 2022.

Demming-Hodge thanked the public for assisting in Thomas’ recapture, and specifically the caller who provided the information on the detainee’s location.
