Execution of Alicia Foster…
Cops question slain woman’s colleagues
Police yesterday took statements from colleagues of slain Senior Environmental Officer, Alicia Foster, as they continued to seek a motive for her brutal execution last Sunday.
But detectives have reportedly made no headway in tracking down Foster’s killers, although there are reports that they are looking for an individual who is known to the victim.
A senior police source confirmed that detectives questioned several staffers from the Environmental Protection Agency, and are to take further statements from other staffers today.
Investigators are attempting to confirm reports that Foster was threatened about two months ago while investigating an alleged environmental violation by a business entity.
But Crime Chief Seelall Persaud has stressed that investigators are also looking for other possible motives.
According to a source, detectives are trying to locate a man who may be able to provide information about Foster’s demise.
Kaieteur News understands that the 26-year-old woman and her fiancé had planned to get married soon.
Foster, a former Bishop’s High School student and university graduate, was gunned down on Sunday night in the driveway of her Lot 78 David Street, Kitty home.
The gunmen escaped with her car, after dumping their victim on the driveway.
Foster’s car, PHH 2263, with all its parts intact, was recovered on Monday near the Holy Spirit Catholic Church in Well Road, North Ruimveldt.
Foster was the EPA’s representative on the Board of the Guyana Geology and Mines Commission and the National Water Council.
She had also coordinated activities on the monitoring and closure of Omai Gold Mines Limited, and had also done a considerable amount of work in the forestry and mining sectors.
