Driver with Cacique’s Crowns on car charged

Ronson Winston Harding of Stewartville, West Coast Demerara, the driver of white Toyota Avensis motor car PNN 9845, has been arrested and charged by Police for displaying the Cacique’s Crown of Honour on his vehicle.
Police ranks reportedly arrested Harding on Thursday, January 12, in Region Three [Essequibo Islands-West Demerara] and his vehicle has been impounded at the Leonora Police Station. Police say Harding’s vehicle was pulled over after two Cacique’s Crowns were observed at the front of the vehicle and two at the rear (flanking the number plate).
Harding has been processed by the Police for breach of the prescribed condition of fitness, and his vehicle has been lodged to be examined by the Licensing and Certifying Officer. He has been placed on cash bail, and is due to appear in court soon.
The Cacique’s Crown of Honour (C.C.H.) is the second-highest award in the Order of Service of Guyana. It is limited to fifty citizens of Guyana. It may be awarded to any citizen of Guyana who has “rendered service of exceptionally high quality beyond the normal call”.
This award is also given posthumously for duty in the Public Service, social and voluntary services, industry or trade unions, or in any other area of public service; or for achieving excellence of national or international standing and recognition in the arts, professions, sciences or sport, or in any other area of activity.
It may also be awarded to institutions, organisations, corporations, or a group of people who have made substantial contributions to the national economy, for achievements of a significant advance resulting in increased efficiency, for applying technology to production or development process in the industry, or other significant achievements and contributions to national development.
In the 1970s the former President awarded the Cacique Crown of Honour to ten citizens, and two citizens every year, after that, as long as the vacancy exists.
