PNC cops are thiefmen. 

Cop caught with stolen phone after it vibrates in his crotch

Apr 14, 2017 News 0 Comments

A Tactical Services Unit (TSU) rank was reportedly exposed as a petty thief, after a phone that he had stolen from a colleague rang while the ranks were on parade.
The embarrassing episode started last Tuesday, when the constable saw the phone, which belonged to a TSU driver, in the barrack-room. He then stashed the device in his crotch before joining his colleagues on the drill square.
Unfortunately, the rank who had lost his phone borrowed a colleague’s device and dialed the number, while passing by the drill square.
Ranks on the drill square were reportedly shocked when the phone began to vibrate and ring in the culprit’s crotch. The device was quickly recovered and the culprit placed in custody.
On being questioned, the constable allegedly claimed that someone had hidden the phone in his crotch.
Kaieteur News understands that relatives of the detained rank have offered the victim a financial settlement. However, the constable is likely to be dismissed and placed before the court.

Looks like another pnc fundraiser gone bad.

The men were detained at the Aurora Police station.

Looks like the PNC govt encouraging some major slackness as molestation of boys rise. Maybe they have many child molesters in their ranks who are immune to prosecution.

Molestation of young boys on the rise

Apr 14, 2017 News 0 Comments

– 17 cases in two months

It would appear as though reports of young boys being sexually molested are on the increase. Statistics emanating from the Childcare and Protection Agency (CPA) revealed this worrying trend.

CPA Director, Ann Greene

In just the first two months of this year, the Ministry of Social Protection has received 17 reports of boys being sexually abused.
The previous year, 2016, saw a total of 118 reported cases of boys being molested. This represents a troubling increase from the 108 reported cases recorded in the previous year. In 2014, there were a total of 60 reported cases of boys being sexually molested, with 80 in 2013, and 89 in 2012.
The majority of boys suffering from abuse in all of its forms, are between the ages of eight and 13. According to the January and February figures, a total of 130 boys who fall within this age range, were being abused in some way or the other. About 49 of the victims were ages 14- to 18-years-old.
Disturbing to note, is the fact that even the toddlers weren’t spared. Eighty-five of these boys were abused during the tender age of zero to three-years-old.
Director of the CPA, Ann Greene has indicated that these figures may just represent a fraction of the trauma being faced by Guyana’s children.
“The irony of this is that, it is not the true picture, since child abuse is a hidden crime. This may only be a tip of the iceberg,” Greene told a forum recently held by the Rights of the Child Commission.
She explained that a number of cases go unreported, since some children literally do not have a voice.
“They are either too young to report the abuse, and in many cases, they are reluctant to tell on the perpetrator, who is more often someone they trust and love,” Greene said.
She added that parents have proven to be a serious threat to their children’s health and development.
“…and the high incidence of child sexual abuse cases are cause for concern, because they do not correspond with the perpetrators being brought to justice.”
Between January and February of this month alone, a total of 765 cases of children being abused were recorded. Of this extremely troubling figure, 58 of these cases resulted in the intervention of the Guyana Police Force. However, only nine of these cases passed through the court system.

In 2016, there were 118 reported cases of boys being molested.

Although the unreported instances of children being abused may reflect an even higher and more disturbing state of affairs, Ms. Greene is warning against interpreting the increase in the number of reports, to mean an increase in the number of cases of abuse.
“Many times it just means that more people are aware of what constitutes child abuse, and are more active in reporting some of the atrocities committed against children,” the CPA Director said.
She explained, too, that the increase in the reports of boys being sexually abused also signals a shift in their behavioural pattern.
“What you would find these days, is that more boys are opening up. More of them are talking about their experiences and that kind of thing. A few years ago, it was more difficult for them to do so,” Greene noted.
She explained that while the number of girls being abused is significantly higher, young boys are also burdened by a lot of silent suffering.
In 2016, there were a total of 734 children being sexually abused. This figure reflects an increase from the 676 cases recorded in the previous year. Some 628 cases of children being molested were dealt with in 2014, followed by 670 in 2013 and a massive 753 in 2012. (Rehana Ahamad)

Woman arrested after allegedly attacking mother, stabbing brother to death

Apr 19, 2017 News 0 Comments

Controversy surrounds the death of a 21-year-old man who succumbed at the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC) yesterday, hours after being stabbed.

Dead: Vishaul Hansraj

The victim has been identified as Vishaul Hansraj, a trawler operator of Covent Garden Squatting Area, East Bank Demerara (EBD).
The young man was stabbed twice in the back around 18:00 hrs on Easter Monday.
Hansraj’s older sister was taken into police custody for attacking her mother, Sumintra Brijmohan, and inflicting a wound to her neck. The sibling is also being questioned about her brother’s death, even as her mother denies that the woman stabbed her brother.
Brijmohan informed investigators that while her daughter attacked her, she did not stab her brother. In fact, no one knows who stabbed the young man.
Investigators however believe that Hansraj’s stabbing is linked to his mother’s attack and as such, the young woman has been detained at the East La Penitence Police Station.
Brijmohan in an interview denied that her daughter killed her son. “No, she didn’t stab him. We had a quarrel because I ask her why she drink (alcohol) and she picked up a knife and cut me on my neck, but it’s not deep,” the woman said.
The woman explained that after she was attacked, neighbours called a taxi for her to go to the Diamond Diagnostic Centre.
According to Brijmohan, while preparing to go to the hospital, Hansraj came home, covered in

The dead man’s mother, Sumintra Brijmohan

blood, claiming that someone stabbed him but he didn’t say who it was—the ground is not far from their home.
“He say he can’t breathe and he gone die and we take him in the same taxi to the hospital. We don’t know who stabbed him and he didn’t see, because he say it was dark,” Brijmohan explained.
She related that her son left home early Easter Monday to go and lime at the Covent Garden ground with his brothers and friends.
“He doesn’t stay one place, so his brothers them ain’t see anything. All we know is that he get in an argument with some boys and they stab he and he lil hot headed. If he and someone get it out, he does jump to fight,” the woman related.
Brijmohan maintained that she doesn’t want any story and that she is a poor woman. “My daughter didn’t stab him.”
Police sources however said that neighbours have indicated that the young man was indeed stabbed by his sibling.
“They are always fighting with each other,” the rank said they were informed, while adding that there is enough information to suggest that the young man was stabbed at home.
Investigation is ongoing.

Alleged plot against President Granger…Probe stalled as cops fail to find man who claims he was hired

Apr 24, 2017 News 0 Comments

The police investigation into claims by a man that he was offered $7M to assassinate President David Granger has hit a snag.
Police have no idea where the individual who made the allegation might be.
The latest twist in the bizarre story was revealed yesterday by a senior police official.
“Despite diligent efforts to contact the complainant, based on advice by our Legal Officer, he wasn’t located. Efforts are ongoing to find him,” the official added.
Based on instructions by the Police Legal Advisor, investigators had intended to arrange a confrontation with the man making the allegation and an alleged eyewitness.
Police Commissioner Seelall Persaud had told journalists on Friday that police had hoped to receive legal advice on the matter early this week.
The Commissioner had said that “the matter was investigated and sent for legal advice (and) we got advice today (Friday). There was a witness that the police contacted, who the Police Legal Advisor asked that we confront with the person making the allegation to  clear up some issues, and then to resend it (the file).”
He had also stated that the Police Legal Advisor was the best person to say “whether the allegation can be proven, or whether there was mischief.”
The Top Cop and Minister of Public Security Khemraj Ramjattan have angrily refuted claims, allegedly aired by a television station, that police ranks were involved in the alleged plot.
They had threatened to take strong action against the television station. Ramjattan had said that such a report could constitute public mischief that could lead to prosecution, “and could lead to severe consequences about their licenses.”
Urging journalists to be responsible in their reporting, Commissioner Persaud recalled the genocide in Rwanda, which was triggered by unprofessional media reports.
It was during his weekly post-Cabinet briefing last Thursday that Minister of State, Joseph Harmon, confirmed that the Cabinet and the Guyana Police Force (GPF) were aware of the reported threat made against President Granger’s life.
Minister Harmon stated that the matter has been referred to the Police Legal Adviser, but declined to give further details, noting that an investigation was already underway.
“Security is not something you play with. The professional people know what they do and they put certain measures in place.”
The alleged plot was reportedly revealed when a man whose name was not disclosed was interviewed by HGP TV and a section of the footage was released on Thursday.
During the interview, the man who had no problems with his identity being known, detailed a plot in which he was offered $7M to kill Granger near or at State House, the official residence of the president.
The man claimed that he went to borrow $6M from a businessman, said to be a gold miner. Instead, the businessman offered $7M.
The businessman allegedly showed the person being interviewed a long gun and said it was to be used in the assassination. However, the man claimed he turned down the offer.
The police reportedly have been investigating the matter for a month now.
The man was reportedly picked up and questioned.
It was claimed that police officers and a businessman with links to the gold industry were said to be involved.
The man, who insisted that he has never harmed anyone before, said he was threatened with death by the persons who attempted to hire him.

Berserk man badly chopped after wounding neighbour

Apr 24, 2017 News 0 Comments

– had tried to burn down sister’s home

A mentally ill man is at risk of losing one of his arms after he was brutally chopped by relatives of another man, whom he attacked with a cutlass at Sophia yesterday morning.
Hospitalized in a critical condition are Paul Douglas, also known as ‘Zeff’, who is of unsound mind and Calvin Mercurius.  Both of them are age 25.
Kaieteur News understands that Douglas who is in the habitat of ‘smoking’ and threatening villagers had an altercation with one of his sisters during which he struck her with a bottle and promised to burn down the apartment she occupies at Lot 207 Seventh Field Section ‘A’ Sophia. Around midnight yesterday, Douglas made good on that promise and set alight a mattress that was in his sister’s room on the ground floor of the two story premises.
The Guyana Fire Service responded promptly and the blaze was contained.

The room that was set alight

The circumstances surrounding the chopping of the two men are unclear but some reports indicate that Mercurius might have confronted Douglas after he set the room alight.
According to reports, the mentally ill man became angry when he was confronted by the other man and dealt him several chops about the body before the man’s relatives came to the victim’s aid. Based on reports, after the other man’s family realized the severity of the attack they attacked Douglas and dealt him several chops about the body.
The injured men were immediately rushed to the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC). From all indications Douglas got the worst of the altercation and chances are that his arm might be amputated.

The house where the chopping took place yesterday

Neighbours say that the man who has his ‘moments’ will normally be in the area brandishing a cutlass and threatening to harm residents. Another neighbour said that Douglas was taken away many times by police because of his erratic behaviour but as soon as he is released from hospital he always returns home.
It was only yesterday that neighbours contacted the police after they became concerned by the man’s ‘odd’ behaviour. When the police visited neighbours said that the ranks were unable to remove the man from the house and they subsequently left.

A 46-year-old Albouystown shop-keeper has filed a complaint against two police ranks, who he claimed caused him to suffer fractures to his legs after they threw him out of one of their vehicle.
Sceon Grose, of Lot 137 James and King Edward Streets, Albouystown, alleged that the incident occurred last Tuesday.
Kaieteur News understands that the incident was reported to officers at the Police Complaints Department at Brickdam.
Grose said that he also returned to the station on Thursday, and provided a senior police official with the names of the two ranks.

The alleged victim, who turned up at Kaieteur News on Tuesday last with his left leg in a cast, and a torn vest, said that his troubles began on Sunday when police ranks arrested a teenaged cousin, who had a dispute with a woman.
The ranks reportedly released the relative on Monday without charges.
But Grouse said that around 20.30hrs on Tuesday, about five police ranks in uniform, and a corporal in plainclothes, came to his shop and re-arrested the cousin.
“He was scuffling and crying, and I said to the police, ‘Let me go with this child.’”
According to Grouse, the ranks allowed him to enter their vehicle, but shortly after driving off, the driver stopped in James Street, Albouystown.
“The vehicle stopped, one of them say ‘How you were getting involved in this matter? Come off the vehicle.”
According to Grose, two of the policemen then hoisted him and tossed him out of the vehicle.
The shopkeeper said that he rolled into a gutter, and suffered injuries to his legs. Residents took him to the Georgetown Public Hospital, where an X-ray examination revealed that his left ankle was broken. He also suffered a broken right toe.
He received a medical document to submit to the police, after visiting the Ruimveldt and Brickdam Police Stations.
“I intend to carry this very far. I need to see some kind of justice,” he said.
