“Right now, I’m still shocked. It’s like the emotional part of me blocked off because I was there and I saw everything,” were the words of the grieving girlfriend, as she recounted the ordeal in which her boyfriend, a Mon Repos resident was gunned down while they both were waiting for the traffic lights to change.
Kimal Khan, 42, was shot dead at the traffic lights at Ogle on the East Coast Demerara Highway at around 00.15 hours on Sunday after a night of bar hopping. His 21-year-old girlfriend who was the pillion rider, escaped uninjured.
The young woman told the police that she and Khan had left their Mon Repos home on a black Honda motorcycle, CL5173, around 11 p.m. on Saturday and gone to a nearby bar where they both consumed alcohol. After a while, they decided to move to another entertainment spot in Georgetown.
