Bandits in the city on Friday grabbed more than one million dollars in assorted currency, jewellery and other articles from attorney Goumattie Singh and two other persons who had just journeyed from the Cheddi Jagan International Airport (CJIA) while two men were arrested on separate break and enter charges.

According to a statement from Guyana Police Force spokesman Ivelaw Whittaker, at about 3AM Friday Singh, 52, and Krishna Persaud of Prashad Nagar, along with taxi-driver Seenauth Ramroop, 36, were attacked and robbed by two men, one of whom was armed with a handgun.

“Investigations revealed that the victims had arrived at Prashad Nagar from the CJIA, and as they exited the vehicle they were held at gunpoint by the perpetrators who took away a suitcase with clothing and other articles, a quantity of jewellery, 3 cell phones, $5,000.00 US, $200.00 CDN, $125,00 TT and personal documents and escaped in a waiting motor car,” Whittaker said.

No one has been held so far.

This is exactly what used to happen when the PNC was in power. Today, the criminals think that the PNC is again in power because GNI idiots told them so..

I have repeatedly warned folks here never to put your real destination address on the immigration forms. There has been countless incidents of thieves waiting for vistors and residents alike as they arrive home.

Po Gomattie.

That's lot of pocket money. $5,000 Us dollars. Wow. The benefits of robbery out weigh the risks.

I always give them the wrong address. Once I gave them the address of a certain magistrate and his house was robbed the same night..
