Bandits relieve Corentyne man of $5.5M

Jun 25, 2013 News

 

Two bandits, one of whom was armed with a shotgun, allegedly robbed Zamin Zakeer, 43, of Albion, Corentyne of $ 5.5 M. The money  belonged to Zakeer’s employer, D. Arjune, the proprietor of Arjune’s Poultry Enterprise located at Chesney,  Corentyne.
According to information, Zakeer was on his way to the bank to deposit the cash for his employer. While along the Albion, Corentyne access road, which is a lonely area, a private car turned in front of Zakeer’s car, causing him to stop.
One of the occupants of the other car quickly exited the silver grey Allion motor car PRR 855 and pointed a gun to him. At the same time the other person came out and sprayed something in his face, then chucked him out of his car.
The robbers then took the bag that contained the cash and the key to Zakeer’s car and made good their escape.
Zakeer claimed that after he got some relief from the burning sensation, he immediately made his way to the Albion Police Station and reported the robbery then informed his employer.
The silver grey Allion was from a car rental of Number 60 Village, Corentyne. The operator of that car rental service is in police custody to assist in identifying the people who hired the car.
The car was found abandoned at Number 60 Village Public Road Corentyne.
