Several cows shot dead at Abary Creek
West Coast Berbice police are investigating the wanton slaying of several head of cattle in the Abary Creek sometime last week.
Eight cows were found dead with what appeared to be gunshot wounds. The cows were owned by farmers who come under the Cotton Tree Cattle Farmers’ Association.
One of the shot cows.
Kaieteur News understands that the cattle are left to graze in the vast pasture several miles down the Abary Creek.
This newspaper was told that when the farmers went to check on their cattle, they found several of them lying dead in the pasture. They are convinced that they were shot because they reportedly found the empty casings of shotgun cartridges at the scene.
They believe that another farmer who boasts of strong Government connections might have been responsible.
They are basing their conclusion on the fact that the police appear reluctant to act in their best interests.
