Following the identification of the miner who was stabbed to death at the Stabroek Market area over a week ago, Police are now on the hunt for the main suspect known as “Blacka”.

According to Public Relations Officer of the Guyana Police Force, Jairam Ramlakhan, searches are on for the main suspect as well as other persons of interest.seelall brother

Fifty-one-year-old Haymant Persaud, a resident of Affiance Village, Essequibo Coast, was murdered on February 19 last. At the time of his death, the man’s identity was unknown.

It was only until the Police issued a notice on Sunday last, seeking the public’s assistance to identify the man, that Police Commissioner Seelall Persaud realised that he was his younger brother. The Top Cop subsequently positively identified the body at the Georgetown Public Hospital Mortuary.

Based on reports reaching Guyana Times, a woman suspected to be involved in the stabbing to death of Persaud was arrested, but was released since at that time, the Police did not know the identity of the man.

It is believed that the younger Persaud, who had apparently returned from the interior, was sporting in the vicinity of Stabroek Market and was spending money ‘wild west’.

The female suspect, who was close by, joined in the drinking spree after which Persaud was reportedly lured to the washroom area at Stabroek square where he was attacked by two men who attempted to relieve him of his money and other valuables.

The now dead man reportedly put up a fight, but was stabbed by one of the men who whipped out a knife. Several people in the area reportedly witnessed the stabbing incident and believed that it was the female suspect who set up the robbery.

Further, Guyana Times was told that after the stabbing incident, public-spirited citizens ran to the Guyana Fire Service for assistance in taking the injured man to the hospital, but the ranks on duty at the time refused.

The ranks reportedly went to the scene and after they realised he was dead, they left the scene. The ambulance service was then contacted and the man was picked up and taken to the Georgetown Public Hospital where he was pronounced dead on arrival.

I always maintained that killers in Guyana don't discriminate. One day they will get to Ramjattan and Granger as well. I am saying this with pride that I am praying for this to happen to both of them.

Did you pray when crime was rampant under Jagdeo PPP and Satyadeo and others were killed.....I think not.

No. I wish criminals would kill out the PNC today if possible.
