A 25-year-old Field Supervisor attached to the Enmore Estate was attacked by armed men yesterday morning.
According to a police press release, at about 10:50 am yesterday Seudat Ramdial, of Non Pareil, East Coast Demerara, was proceeding out of the backdam of the estate on motorcycle CD 7831 when he was confronted by two men in the vicinity of the Haslington Middle Walk Bridge who struck him off the vehicle with a piece of cane.
The men who were reportedly masked and armed with a firearm and a cutlass and dressed in camouflage uniforms attempted to tie up Seudat Ramdial during which there was a scuffle. Ramdial said that he managed to escape into a nearby canal and ran into the canefields.
“He subsequently met up with a GUYSUCO security vehicle and was brought out to Enmore where the matter was reported to the police”, the release added.
GUYSUCO security personnel recovered the motorcycle along with Ramdial’s helmet, boots, wristwatch and a haversack with books at the spot where the incident occurred.
Police patrols have since scoured the backlands but have not located the two assailants.
