Suspect in Oscar Clarke shooting remanded for other offence

Feb 04, 2013 News

 

 

A suspect in the shooting of People’s National Congress Reform (PNCR)’s General Secretary, Oscar Clarke has been remanded to prison for another offence.
Commissioner of Police Leroy Brummel told Kaieteur News that an eyewitness to the attack on Mr. Clarke and his family had failed to pick out the suspect during an identification parade. However, he was not released from custody since an arrest warrant had been issued for him in connection with a narcotics offence.
He was subsequently remanded.
The prisoner is still being considered as a suspect in the attack at the Clarke’s Plum Park, Sophia home, and Commissioner Brummel said that investigators will attempt to set up another identification parade with the PNCR General Secretary, who was discharged on Saturday, and the individual.
Clarke, 74, was shot in the groin and the left side last Tuesday after four bandits invaded his Lot 37 Plum Park, Sophia home while posing as policemen.
His wife, Linda, was slapped by the robbers, who also escaped with an undisclosed amount of valuables.
