Business maligned with Destra Inferno – proprietor

Mar 07, 2013 News

Proprietor of The Candy Shop in New Amsterdam situated at the corner of Strand and Pitt Streets in New Amsterdam, Tito “Candy Boss” Sancho, is not pleased that newspaper reports have linked his business to the failed Destra Inferno Show.
The show was held on the lawns of the New Amsterdam Technical Institute Ground. It was promoted by the Slaughter House Entertainment group in collaboration with the Region Six Democratic Council, the Regional Mashramani Committee and the Region’s Special Events Committee.
Sancho stated that he was only asked to help sell some tickets. He stated that as a popular businessman in the town he is usually asked to assist with the selling of tickets. And as a promoter himself he would usually ask persons to assist him and his group with the selling of tickets.
He was asked by Vijay Panday to assist with the selling of the tickets. He was given 300 tickets to sell. He stated that he sold 100 tickets while the other 200 tickets were stolen. Thus they were cancelled and were not used at the gate.
He handed over the money to Panday. He said that he dealt with Panday since he only met the other guy once. He had no other part to play with the promotion and was not associated with the organisers.  He said that tickets were sold at other places in Berbice.
He is asking patrons and others to contact the promoters with all their queries. Sancho is not pleased that his business was mentioned in the story, since it could tarnish his good name.
