Yesterday, police on the Essequibo Coast conducted searches at the home of 42-year-old businessman Fabian Gonsalves, who was kidnapped two weeks ago.
Reports are that several properties where the popular boat builder and his family occupy were searched. However the man was not found. Sources close to the investigation said the exercise was conducted since there were reports that the man would have returned home yesterday.
Meanwhile this newspaper has since been informed that the man may arrive in Guyana sometime later today as flights out of Venezuela, where it is believed that the man was being held, are only scheduled on Wednesdays and Fridays. On June 3 last, Gonsalves was in the company of his mother-in-law, Carol Adams and her grandson, 23-year-old Chris Williams, around 22:30 hours, when a group of men barged in through an open door. Adams and Williams were bound by the intruders who handcuffed Gonsalves and carried him away in a boat.
His wife, Philomena, who lives at Hampton Court, made a report to Anna Regina Police Station, also on Essequibo Coast. No one knows from where the kidnappers came but speculation is that they were illegal aliens who arrived via the Pomeroon River.
Since the kidnapping, other Pomeroon residents have been fearful for their safety and have made repeated calls for a Police outpost to be located in the vicinity of the Pomeroon River mouth to monitor incoming and outgoing vessels.
