According to Harrychan, it was her son’s 20th birthday and she had prepared an exotic meal but had not served it yet when the attack was occurred.
She said that at the time she was at home with two of the three children, including the birthday boy, and his friend.
“I get a phone call from somebody at Number 47 Village stating that bandits were in the area.”
The housewife said at the time she was sitting under the house and her husband, who is a rice farmer, was not at home.
“Right away, I call my husband and tell him and he tell me that he coming, so I go inside and close in the door.
When I pulling in the door, they push it open and come inside.”
She explained that her son was in the vacant lot next to their home along with his 18-year-old friend.
On hearing her scream, they ran to her rescue.
As they entered the house, they were taken captive, bound and made to lie face down while the men used Harrychan’s 13-year-old daughter to assist them in getting the valuables.
“They tumble the whole house and carry away all the jewellery and money.”
She said they took one gold bangle valued $50,000,
six gold rings valued $190,000,
one gold band valued $105,000
and one pair of gold earrings valued $75,000.
The men also removed from the home two tablets valued $96,000,
a Blackberry cellular phone,
Nokia cellular phone and
a Blue cellular phone totalling $60,000 in value.
“They say that it is not enough and they asking me for more.
They get $150,000 that belongs to me
and $200,000 that belong to my husband.
They say if they don’t get anything else,
they will rape my 13-year-old daughter.”

This made her angry and she told them not to harm the little girl.
Harrychan offered the intruders two gold bangles that she was wearing at the time but told them that it was not gold and the two pairs of gold earrings she had on and they refused them.
