– Crum-Ewing probe…
Another People’s Progressive Party Civic (PPP/C) supporter Kwame McCoy was taken into Police custody in relation to what appears to be another ongoing investigation into the murder of political activist Courtney Crum-Ewing who was gunned down in his community some two months prior to the May 11 General and Regional Elections.
Guyana Times understands that police officers visited the home of former Information Liaison Officer and requested that McCoy turn come down to the police station for questioning.
McCoy is the second PPP/C activist who was arrested in connection to this probe.
Yesterday, Freedom House employee Jason Abdulla was also arrested.
Reports also indicate that self-confessed death squad member Sean Hinds was also taken into the police custody for questioning into the matter.
Notably, Regan Rodrigues aka “Grey Boy” was charged with the ex-soldier’s murder. Police confirmed the discovery of gun and ammunition that was tested a positive match to the one used in Crum-Ewing’s killing, within his possession.
Rodrigues was later sentenced to three years in prison on a charge of escaping lawful custody – after he fled the scene upon the discovery of the weaponry.
