Months after Corentyne businesswoman Su Di Wong was shot and killed after gunman invaded her home, three persons including two remanded prisoners have been questioned and the case file is expected to be sent for legal advice soon.
Stabroek News was reliably informed that two of the three men who were questioned are currently on remand for robbery. The matter is being investigated by ranks from the Major Crime Unit which is working towards closing the investigation soon.
Di Wong, 44, was killed on the evening of February 8, when two bandits invaded her Number 57 Village, Corentyne, Berbice premises.
The police, in a press release, had said that Di Wong, her husband and two sons, were having dinner in their restaurant, Jin Li Lai, which was closed for business, when two men, one of whom was armed with a firearm, entered through an open door.
Stabroek News was told that as the family sat down to eat, Di Wong returned to the kitchen where she was attacked and she screamed, alerting her family that something was amiss.
Her son, Su Zhuo Xing, had told this newspaper that upon checking, he saw two men in the kitchen with his mother. He said the men were armed with a cutlass and a gun and were demanding valuables from his mother. He said his father left him and his 13-year-old brother in the restaurant and went to his mother’s defence.
It was then, Su said, that they heard an explosive noise and rushed to the kitchen where they saw the two men running away, their mother lying on the ground in a pool of blood and their shocked father standing there.
Di Wong was rushed to the Skeldon Hospital where she was pronounced dead on arrival.
