“The sight of my son walking through the door in a hospital gown, skin bloody with obvious injuries is one that I would never forget. Even talking about it right now is almost making me shake.”
The words of a mother of two whose 17-year-old son was brutally attacked and robbed in the village of Tuschen, East Bank Essequibo. One man has since been charged in relation to the incident and is out on $300,000 bail. The mother said there are at least three more people involved in the incident but it seems as if the police have ended their investigation.
“But I am not going to give up, I call almost every day because I need justice for my son. He is now left traumatised by a most horrific attack and one he now has to live with forever,” she told me recently.
