Two bandits armed with a gun and cutlass pounced on an Edinburgh Village, East Bank Berbice Imam on Sunday evening robbing him of his late wife’s jewellery and cash.
Imam Shameer Khan Rajab, 69, who operates a shop at Lot 168 Edinburgh Scheme, East Bank Berbice, explained that he and a friend who resides with him and his son were sitting in the shop area of the lower flat of his house when at around 8.30 pm on Sunday two persons pounced on them.
He said that as soon as he attempted to sit on a chair he heard a gun crank behind him “he’s a left-hander and he put it to my head and he say get up, get up and come in and don’t keep any noise” while the second perpetrator armed with a cutlass followed behind.
