GRAND CAYMAN, Cayman Islands – Premier Hon. Alden McLaughlin said he was deeply saddened to have learned of the passing of the father of incoming Governor Anwar Choudhury.
Mr. Afruz Bakht Choudhury, hailing from Sylhet in Bangladesh, left this earthly realm on Saturday in London.

His son, Anwar Choudhury, is to take up the post as Governor of the Cayman Islands on Monday, 26 March, 2018.

He replaces Her Excellency Helen Kilpatrick who served the Cayman Islands from September 2013 until March 2018.

“Beginning a new position in a foreign land cannot be easy on anyone, but it must be especially difficult when you are facing the death of a parent,” said Mr. McLaughlin. “On behalf of the Government and people of the Cayman Islands, I wish to extend our thoughts and prayers to Mr. Choudhury and his family.”
