-body run over by car
A young store owner from the island of Wakenaam on the Essequibo River lost his life after he was shot during a daring daylight robbery and then run over by a passing motorcar at Robb and Alexander Streets, Georgetown yesterday.
Twenty six-year-old Mahendra Persaud, of Lot 22 Good Success, was pronounced dead

on arrival at the Georgetown Public Hospital, minutes after he was picked up from the roadway.
The police in a statement yesterday said that about 10:45hrs, Persaud was with his driver in a vehicle when he was attacked by a man armed with a firearm. The man demanded a bag with money that Persaud had in his possession.
According to the police, Persaud put up resistance and a struggle ensued during which he was shot to the neck. He subsequently fell on the roadway and in the process, was run over by motor vehicle, PVV 3157.
This newspaper was told by eyewitnesses that a licenced firearm holder who was in proximity, exchanged gunshots with the gunman, who subsequently managed to escape on a waiting Honda CG motorcycle ridden by an accomplice. It is believed that the bandit was shot in the process and fled leaving the bag with cash behind.
Investigators are convinced that Persaud was trailed by the bandit and his accomplice, who waited for the right opportunity to strike.
A police source, informed this publication that Persaud had previously visited two stores and was about to visit a third when he was confronted by the bandit. He had in his possession approximately $700,000, the source revealed.
The bag with the money was reportedly recovered by the police.
The police, after examining CCTV footage, said that they were able to identify the bandit and are making every effort to have him arrested.
Meanwhile, the driver of the car that ran over Persaud, took him to the hospital and later vanished, leaving the vehicle in the hospital compound. It was reported that he subsequently sent another man along with a mechanic to switch the licence plates on the vehicle. The two men were caught in the act and were arrested.
While they were handcuffed and sat at the back of a police pickup, one of them told media operatives that he was unaware of the incident. He continued that he was just parked next to the mechanic when the police approached him and said that he was involved in the death of someone.
Persaud’s aunt, who was at the hospital, told media operatives that her nephew, who got married just over a month ago, would usually come to the city to buy goods to take back to the island where he and her father ran a general store together. She stated that there were several attempts made in the past, but never to this extent.
When this publication contacted Persaud’s wife Parvena by telephone yesterday, she recalled that her husband left the Essequibo island at around 07:00 hrs for his usual trip to the city to purchase stocks for his business.
With him was his driver and trusted friend. The woman said that sometime around 11:00 hrs she received a telephone call, informing her that her husband was shot. She was advised to prepare herself to travel to the Georgetown Hospital where they had taken her husband.
But as she was about to leave her house she received the dreaded call that her husband had succumbed and she should no longer travel.
“It’s only about two months now since we got married…..I have to try,” Parvena Persaud cried.
She said that her husband’s driver is still in shock after seeing his close friend gunned down and he could not have done anything to help him.
“He said that by the time he got out of the car, they had already shot my husband and a car ran over him; he could do nothing,” Parvena Persaud told this newspaper.
A post mortem examination is to be performed on Persaud’s body today.

I blamed the PNC/AFC and I will continue to do so as they were instrumental in supporting criminal activity, even to the point of handing out guns and organizing criminal gangs to commit genocide against Indians.

RIP our brother. May Krsna open the gates of heaven for you.
This is a sad reality for our Indo brothers and sisters in Guyana.
PNC made Ewing a hero but our brother is just another murder number for this uncaring AFC/PNC administration.
Those who came out swinging for Ewing are in silence in fear of the Harmonium Harmun for speaking out.

Prashad really has something good to say by advocating for the separation of Guyana based on racial division. That's so progressive.

The afc/apnu have painted the Indian businessman as evil and unscrupulous, deserving of being murdered. When in opposition they claimed every successful indian businessman was a drug dealer.
