As such, the man told the court that he did not want to continue with the matter, thus the magistrate dismissed the case and told the wrongfully-accused prisoner that he was free to go.
Persaud told Guyana Times International on Saturday morning that upon his arrest, he told the investigators that he was wrongfully accused, reiterating that he did not collect any money from persons purporting that he can secure U.S. visas for them.
He added that he has been wrongfully locked up for at least five days and was dragged to court where the fraud charges were read to him, to which he indicated his innocence.
Persaud went on to say that the first time he was arrested for the visa scam, he was set up,c but after the magistrate realised that he was innocent, she also dismissed the case.
