Enmore man beaten after bandits invade homes of families
Police are investigating reports of armed robberies committed on two Enmore, East Coast Demerara (ECD) families early yesterday morning, allegedly by three masked males, all of whom were armed with handguns.
Investigations have revealed that around 02:00hrs, Chatterpaul Persaud and his wife were confronted by the suspects who gained entry into their one-flat home via a southern door.
They were relieved of a quantity of gold jewellery and a sum of cash.
During the ordeal, police said, Persaud was dealt several lashes to his head after which the couple’s hands were bound.
The bandits then proceeded to the home of Persaud’s parents, which is adjacent to his, and allegedly relieved his mother of cash and jewellery. Her husband, who was sleeping in another room, was not disturbed.
Persaud received treatment at the Mahaicony Cottage Hospital and was sent away.
“Investigators are currently obtaining statements and processing the scenes, in the presence of their newly installed Commander, Senior Superintendent Edmond Cooper. No arrests have yet been made.”
