By Shuntel Glasgow
Dissatisfied squatters of Success South, East Coast Demerara are claiming that they were forced to relocate from the lands they had occupied to an undeveloped location further in the backlands that is not served with electricity and water.
The instructions to move came from the Ministry of Housing and Water, the residents claim. The residents said they were told by the Ministry they had three days in which to pull down their structures. The residents further said then they then had to rebuild so as to provide shelter for their families. Approximately 15 families occupy the area.
