Overseas- based Guyanese flees country in fear after robbery

Jul 14, 2013 News

 

 

…..one suspect in custody
Overseas- based Guyanese, Sadesh Mangaldin, who was brutally robbed and attacked by four masked bandits at the house in which he was staying on Thursday evening, left Guyana yesterday morning for New York.
Reports suggest that Mangaldin, who originally claimed that the bandits relieved him of US$9,500, did not lose all that money.
It was reported that Mangaldin had visited a local bank here and changed Guyanese currency for US$9,500 which he intended to take back to the States.
Mangaldin was in the country since two Saturdays ago and was staying at his sister-in-law’s residence at Lot 339 Ankerville, Port Mourant, Corentyne when he was attacked shortly after 19:00 hrs on Thursday by the men.
At the time he was relaxing in his hammock; one gunman rushed into the yard, while another raced upstairs and demanded that he hand over the bag with cash which was hidden under a bed.
Mangaldin also sustained chops about his body as a result of the confrontation. The men took the bag and made good their escape.
He was a patient at the Port Mourant Hospital and was subsequently released. He quickly made arrangements to leave the country early yesterday morning for fear of his life.
Investigations are continuing.
