Four men are now in custody after a gang broke into a Seawell, East Coast Berbice home yesterday morning and proceeded to brutalise and rob a family, which has been left traumatised.
The perpetrators made their escape with $100,000 in cash, approximately $150,000 in jewellery and a tablet. However, police subsequently arrested the four persons in connection with the robbery.
According to Comman-der of ‘B’ Division Ian Amsterdam, investigators believe the gang of thieves is from the Canje area and is headed by a notorious criminal who was just recently released from prison.
