Neighbours caught stealing, given sound thrashing
Two robbers were beaten and tied up by residents of Great Diamond, East Bank Demerara yesterday who caught them entering the lower flat of a house. One of the men was discovered to be a neighbour.
The neighbour who was caught red handed in the house.
The men were confronted by residents after one of the robbers was acting suspiciously while standing on a step at Lot 552 Great Diamond, East Bank Demerara. The man on the step was confronted and attempted to flee the scene but was apprehended by residents, who in turn concluded that he was the lookout for another man who was already in the house.
Both men were beaten and tied with ropes onto two separate posts in the same yard in which they were caught.
Ironically, the man caught in the house was a neighbour. Both men were given a thrashing. Embarrassed relatives of the thieving neighbour immediately requested that his clothing and belongings be removed.
Police were summoned and the men were saved from a further beating. They were taken to the Grove Police Station pending charges.
“Imagine one of them is a neighbour, and he get caught coming through the door after the other one try to run away…The last time we caught someone stealing like
