our government does not give a shit about these people that is the simple truth. Sad for these families. Unfortunately the life of a person in the Bahamas comes with a small price tag. That is what fundamentally sets us apart from a civilized society.

A friend was telling me just yesterday about an unrelated story about a young man from his neighbourhood, he concluded his statement by saying, *but he's been missing for six years now*. If the last person they saw went to great lengths to hide their trail they won't be found. Thats the sad truth. On a second point, There are 200+ people from that Malaysian airlines jet missing at sea that multiple governments have been trying to find for months and have been unable to. Have they found that aircraft that crashed off ?Jamaica yet? And they actually know the approximate coordinates!! The ocean is vast, constantly shifting and it doesn't give up secrets quickly.

If these men took an ill conceived trip on a less than sea worthy vessel to enter the US illegally anything could have happened.what the government is supposed to do,I don't know...

" last year a US Coast Guard official in an email to Mr Guumus confirmed the discovery of a wallet with Huseyin's identification 26 miles of Fort Pierce, Florida." is that not evidence that he maid it to the United States come on read and understand Bahamas.

No it's not. It's only evidence that he was in the water somewhere between the Bahamas and Florida, but that's it. The tide could have brought it further to shore. I hope Mr Gumus gets some closure eventually on exactly what happened to his relative, not knowing is torture. And yes please look out for extortionists, they exist all over the world including the Bahamas.

This person seems to have much information and he has been in contact with persons in Grand Bahama and Nassau. along with the Company they were working with. they should give this information to the Police. It is wrong to say the Police are not working on this case I am sure they are. Besides God alone knows how many persons lose their lives on boats trying to enter the USA.

I don't know why we would expected any different from a government who "outsourced" it garbage trucks to members in its party's cabinet and turn around and pay those party members 30. 000 a month plus government agreed to provide the fuel for the trucks to boot to provide the service that government was getting free prior!!! Candia Dames need to get on this case!

This thing gets "darker" by the minute!! You think thats what Wells have on them why they een fooling with his job???

I'm wondering if the same thing was done with the contracts for the maintenance of the roadsides. It's ridiculous, It's not uncommon now to see one lone man with a single lawn mower, mowing a vast stretch of grass. During the previous administration it was a common sight to see an entire crew cutting tree limbs and bagging debris. How are these contracts being awarded? What is going on at the Ministry Of Works?

Was the cellphone a local number? BTC recycles those but should be easy enough to verify.

My brother Howard Pryce mysteriously disappeared on March 9th also. Along with 10 Jamaicans, 2 Turkish, and 7 Dominicans and 1 Bahamian. he was also promised safe passage to Florida by a known smuggler called 'Klement'. We have given the officials tons of information and yet they continue to tell us the same thing even after 2 years 'we are still investigating'. We don't believe they have actively done anything to help bring closure or justice to our situation. Illegal or not, these men are humans, fathers, brothers, husbands and even grandfathers. They all have families that are now torn apart because of this. We only want answers... Is this too much to ask in the Bahamas? We do believe that the lack of interest in this case is because the men involved were of different nationalities. Sad. if anyone has any info that can help shed any light on this case please feel free to contact myself at 909-440-7375. Or Mr Gumus at 416-875-6447. WE WILL NEVER GIVE UP.

That's a big part of the problem right there...YOU HAVE MORE IMPORTANT THINGS TO DO...Wow!

Mr Gumus has provided plenty of incriminating smuggling ring evidence and proof to the Bahamian authorities, yet no action has been taken against the individuals who are clearly responsible. We have given them PLENTY of leads that they haven't followed...Mr Gumus also believes that these men may have been involved in illegal organ trafficking and possibly captured our families to kill them and take their kidneys. Your authorities consider this ludicrous when in fact according to the World Health Organization, the illegal trade in kidneys has risen to such a level that an estimated 10,000 black market operations involving purchased human organs now take place annually. BAHAMAS IS NOT EXEMPT!
