Mon Repos NDC superintendant gets a beating

Oct 23, 2009 News

Superintendant of works for the Mon Repos Neighbourhood Democratic Council (NDC) was given a sound thrashing on Sunday for executing his duties.
Rocky Ramgopaul, 45, of 134 Good Hope, East Coast Demerara, told Kaieteur News yesterday that on Sunday at approximately 13:30 hours, he and with some other workers was cleaning up the Mon Repos Market when he noticed that some vendors had left their stalls in the market.
Ramgopaul explained that whenever this occurs, the NDC would impound the stalls at the NDC office.
As such, he and his workers were in the process of doing such, when he was tackled and given a good beating from the husband of a woman who plies her trade in the market.
According to Ramgopaul, the man took a piece of wood and started to hit him about his body, which in the end left him with his left arm broken in three places.
The NDC superintendant made a report to the Beterverwagting Police Station, but until now the suspect has not been apprehended.
Ramgopaul said that since the incident he has not seen the man, and has no knowledge of where he might be. The badly injured man wants the police to handle the report with some amount of urgency so that justice can prevail.
So bad are his injuries that Ramgopaul will now have to undergo surgery on Monday to put in steels in his arm in order for it to be corrected.
