Man beaten, police slow to act – say family members

Mar 11, 2010 News

The family members of Anand Alphonso, 30, are peeved at the way the police have conducted their investigations into Alphonso’s beating.
His sister, Renika, said that the businessman who had beaten her brother has been allowed to walk free after he was detained for a mere two hours. Renika said that her brother and another man called Prado from the same village were standing on a bridge at Lima having a conversation.
She recalled that around 10:30 pm her mother Rookmin woke her up and told her to look by the bridge where her brother was standing. She said she saw both men standing on the bridge and as they proceed further she heard her brother cried out to her, “Ow Chiney; help me”.
Renika said she saw her brother collapsed. When he reached him he was lying in a pool of blood on the road and the shop owner was still kicking him.
She said she subsequently went back home and placed several calls to the Anna Regina police station.
It was an hour later that the police who responded to her call transported her brother to the Suddie Public Hospital.
She noted her brother sustained cuts to his head, foot and hand. He is still bleeding through the mouth.
