The tomb of a well-known Vryheid’s Lust, East Coast Demerara contractor was broken into sometime Thursday night and relatives believe the perpetrators planned to steal jewellery believed to have been buried with him.
Rudolph Baldeo, 59, was buried on September 12, three days after he had succumbed to a stroke, his wife, Bibi Baldeo said. The woman told Stabroek News yesterday that her husband, a well-known road contractor, usually wore jewellery and it is believed that the tomb raiders were under the impression he was buried with the pieces. “But all he bury with was his spectacles and a fake band and chain which he requested,” she told Stabroek News.
