Cops find dead bandit, stolen cellphone in backdam

Dec 24, 2014 News

The decomposed body of a so far unidentified man, who is believed to be a member of a gang that robbed a Ruby Backdam family recently, was found in the Good Hope Backdam yesterday morning.
The body of the man who is of African ethnicity was found at about 08:30 hours by a farmer who was making his way to his farm.
Police are convinced that the man was a member of the armed robbery gang since a cellular phone that was stolen during an armed robbery recently at Ruby Backdam, East Bank Essequibo, was found at the scene.
The deceased is about five feet six inches in height, fair complexion and appears to be in his mid-thirties.
The body was clad in a multi-coloured jersey and shorts and bears a tattoo “God Bless” on the upper right arm.
The police did not say if the body bore any marks of violence but detectives are probing whether the man was killed by his accomplices or if he was injured during the robbery when rounds were discharged.
The body is at the Ezekiel Funeral Parlour at Best, Vreed-en-Hoop, West Coast Demerara.
Investigations are in progress.
