Corbin’s guard arrested in murder, armed robbery probe

Opposition Leader Robert Corbin’s personal security guard was early yesterday morning arrested by police and is reportedly being held in a probe of murder and robbery under arms.

The People’s National Congress Reform (PNCR) in a press statement yesterday stated that Cyrus Boyce was picked up by joint services ranks following the cordoning off of his Better Hope, East Coast Demerara home at 2 am yesterday.  The statement also said that the man’s house was searched by eight ranks, allegedly for arms and ammunition but nothing was found.  Efforts by this newspaper to contact police on the party’s assertions proved futile.
