Jerseys From China wvsy4q2x
| The Joint Services have come in for high praise from residents of Bartica in the wake of the slaying of three bandits on Saturday last.In an invited comment, Regional Executive Officer, Peter Ramotar, said it is very heartening to see that the Joint Services have reaped success in such a short period of time.“It is indeed sad that lives were taken,Jerseys From China, but I guess that is what happens to persons who choose that path of life,” Ramotar said.He opined that the recent incident in which the three bandits met their demise shows that the law enforcement agencies still are capable of dealing with crime.He added that what occurred also goes to show the level of intelligence gathering on the part of the Joint Services. He further lauded the efforts of the Joint Services, more so given the fact that they are putting the helicopter to use.In addition, Ramotar said that he is sure that the incident has brought some amount of ease to the minds of Barticans.“Residents have expressed their satisfaction but are a little saddened that it was their fellow Barticans who were involved,” Ramotar explained.However Ramotar said he is worried over the fact that these persons who were killed were all before the court for similar crimes and were all out on bail.“I am not lashing out at the judicial system but I think something more needs to be done as it relates to gun crimes.”He said more often than not when bandits are caught, one would find that these persons are not first offenders but instead they have a history.In recent times, Barticans had expressed their concern over a sudden upsurge in criminal activities. In responding to the situation the Guyana Police Force had sent additional ranks to the area. Also several ranks from the Guyana Defence Force were deployed to the area to carry out groundwork.The joint effort was duly rewarded on Saturday when three members of a gang that is believed to have been responsible for robberies in Bartica and outlying communities were shot dead during a pre-dawn gunfight with Joint Services ranks at Arimu Backdam, Cuyuni.Police said that 25-year-old Dwayne Marks called “Bully” of Bartica; Antwan Smith, 35, called “Deportee” of Linden ; and Gavin Gray, 27, called “Sweet Eyes” of Bartica, were slain at around 02:30 hrs Saturday after opening fire on the ranks who had tracked them down. |
