Insurance company Nalico/Nafico last month paid over $1 million to Sentinel Security after the death of security guard Gerald Henry, who was fatally shot by bandits while on duty at a Liliendaal supermarket.
Cedric Browne, Sentinel’s Operations Manager, told Stabroek News that the payout was made possible because of the company’s non-contributory insurance scheme, paid by Sentinel on behalf of its officers. The benefits are paid to the family of those who die in the line of duty.
Henry, 64, was killed on June 30, while attempting to fight off bandits who attacked his place of work, the Good Luck supermarket, located at Lot 8 Block X, Liliendaal, East Coast Demerara.
