Cousins confess to torching GECOM building in Wismar – police

Teon February

Almost a year after a fire destroyed the upper part of a building at Wismar, Linden which housed the Guyana Elections Com-mission (GECOM) office, police have arrested two suspects who they say have since admitted their involvement in the crime and implicated two others, including the suspected mastermind, who is yet to be arrested.

Crime Chief Wendell Blanhum yesterday informed Stabroek News that the two suspects were arrested on Monday.

They have been identified as Teon February called ‘Nut’, 23, a labourer of Canvas City, Wismar Linden and Marlon Hunter called ‘Bushy’, 21, of 4th Street, Silver Town, Wismar, Linden.
