Raphael Massiah, made its first set of donations on Tuesday, last, to relatives of four police ranks who were killed in the line of duty.
Receiving significant monetary donations at their residences were the immediate relatives of Corporal Sherwayne Pantlitz, who was shot and killed during a confrontation with a licenced firearm holder who had gone berserk at Middle Street, Georgetown; Corporal Romain Cleto who lost his life during an armed confrontation with criminal elements at Avenue of Republic, Georgetown; Corporal Silburn Elias who was shot and killed while making efforts to recapture a prisoner who had escaped from police custody and had taken away a firearm from a police rank; and Constable Antonio Dawson who was fatally stabbed during efforts to arrest an alleged mentally unstable man.
The Guyana Police Force with the support of religious leaders of the Cops and Faith Community Network and members of the business community, had established the Fallen Heroes Foundation on November 5, 2015, with the aim of providing adequate assistance to the relatives of those ranks who had lost their lives in the line of duty with emphasis on providing educational facilities for their children among other initiatives.
