Relatives of murdered watchman Mohamed Haniff are at their wits end over the apparent sloth in the police investigation.
Haniff’s battered body was found at his worksite which is located opposite Ming’s Services Limited at Providence, East Bank Demerara, less than two weeks ago.
His sister Jocelyn Griffith on Saturday told Kaieteur News that relatives are yet to hear from the police concerning the matter.
Griffith said that the family had contacted the owner of the security firm, but got little help.
Haniff was employed with the Dynamic Security Firm at the time of his death. The woman further told Kaieteur News that they were told by the owner that he knew who had committed the murder.

“He tell we that he know is who…..so I say let’s go to police, but he say he waiting for the police contact him,” the woman said.
Relatives plan on returning to the station today to get an update on the matter.
Griffith opined that the family would not allow the matter to be swept under the carpet, this time around. Griffith lost her daughter Latisha Rodrigues a year ago. She was stabbed at the Stabroek Market by her reputed husband’s girlfriend. The women had a feud that went on for several years. The suspect is yet to be located.
Workers at the site where Haniff’s battered body was found, also discovered a bloodied piece of iron, along with a bloodied tarpaulin upon which his bashed-in head lay.
A high power generator and other machinery that were locked in a container were stolen.
