Police are on the hunt for two men who robbed a pensioner during the wee hours of Sunday morning at her home in Eccles, East Bank Demerara.
The injured woman, Rohnee Mithuram, 78, told reporters she was asleep when the men broke into her home around 3 am, and tried to stifle her by placing a pillow over her face.
The woman, who was still visually traumatized, said she awoke up unable to breathe freely and the men removed the pillow and asked for money and jewelry.
