Minister of Home Affairs Robeson Benn yesterday said that the motive for Sunday night execution-style shooting of gold dealer Ricardo Fagundes remains unclear.

Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of the opening ceremony of the Guyana Fire Service (GFS) senior officers conference yesterday, Benn said that as the police investigation continues, no arrest has yet been made.

Fagundes, also known as ‘Paper Shorts’, 42, a resident of Sandy Babb Street, Kitty, was riddled with bullets by two men outside of the Palm Court on Main Street on Sunday around 10 pm.
