Four men are in police custody following the robbery of two medical doctors with a toy gun on the East Coast Demerara Friday night.
Guyana Police Force spokesman Ivelaw Whittaker in a release Saturday stated that around 7.30 PM Drs. Kalai Rajan, 24, and Ragharendra Balakrishnan, also 24, were on their way home along First Street, Cummings Lodge, when they were attacked and held at gunpoint by four men, one of whom was armed with a firearm.
“The perpetrators took away two cell phones and a wallet from the victims and escaped. An alarm was raised and an off-duty policeman and residents gave chase during which one of the suspects was arrested,” Whittaker said.
He added that subsequent investigations led to the arrest of three other suspects and the recovery of the two cell phones and the wallet.
A toy pistol was recovered at the scene, the police say.
