-estimates $20M loss after truck accident
Rajputi Bacchus, owner of Greenhouse Apartments, vividly recalls the terrifying morning of November 19 when a truck slammed into her building, causing damage she estimates at over $20 million. The accident not only left her property in ruins but also claimed the life of a 42-year-old electrical engineer from Kitty, leaving behind a grieving wife and two children.
In an exclusive interview with Stabroek News, Bacchus recounted the chaotic moments of the crash. “I had just gotten out of bed when I heard this loud noise,” she said. Alarmed, she rushed to her front door, only to see the devastating sight of the truck embedded in her building. “The lights immediately went off around the entire building.”
