Bandits kill Essequibo Coast newspaper vendor

An Essequibo Coast, Region Two (Pomeroon-Supenaam), newspaper vendor was shot and killed on Friday evening.

Dead: Sham “Chunnilall” and “Paper man” Munilall

Dead is Sham Munilall called “Chunnilall” and “Paper man” of Lot 61 First Street, Queenstown, Essequibo Coast. The incident occurred at his home at about 19:30h.
Guyana Times understands that Munilall was at home with his wife and two daughters when two armed bandits pounced on the family.
Up to press time, it was unclear what transpired and if the perpetrators managed to take anything from the family.
However, neighbours told this newspaper that they heard two gunshots but did not realise what it was at the time.
They explained that there was a party nearby and the music was loud and they initially thought the loud explosive sounds were firecrackers. It was not until they heard screams coming from the house that they were alerted that something was amiss.
Persons told this publication that when they rushed out, they saw two males running away from the house.
When contacted, Regional Commander Crystal Robinson told Guyana Times late on Friday evening that ranks were out combing the backlands for the two suspects. At the time, she was still awaiting details about the incident from investigators, who were still at the scene.
Munilall was also a vendor of Guyana Times newspaper.
The Management and staff of the Times Media Group wish to extend sincerest condolences to the wife and children as well as other relatives and friends of Mr Munilall.

This is a shock and we are extremely sad and disturbed with what occurred. I was at Queenstown. Essequibo Coast for a funeral yesterday. We were in the next village when this took place. We knew chunninal since he was a little kid, our family and his were really close, more like family. His parents were poor and struggled and Chunnilall and his wife worked very hard to better themselves so their children can have a better life.

Four arrested for Essequibo Coast “Papersman” killing

Police say they have arrested four persons as they probe the killing of newspaper vendor, Shawn “Papersman” Mannilall.

Investigators said the 48-year-old businessman of Parcel 61, Queenstown, Essequibo Coast, was shot dead by one of two armed bandits at about 8 o’clock Friday night, January 10, 2020 at his home.

“Initial investigation revealed that the deceased and his family were about to enter their home when they were confronted by two masked men, both wearing helmets and armed with a handgun and a cutlass.

Subsequently, the firearm was discharged hitting Mannilall to his chest, shoulder and right side abdomen causing him to fall after which both men made good their escape,” the Guyana Police Force said.

Mannilall was rushed to the Suddie Public Hospital and was pronounced dead on arrival. The body is currently at the hospital’s mortuary awaiting a postmortem.
