Dead: Fazal Shaheed

One of the men succumbed to his gunshot wounds, while another is critical and the third one is out of danger.
It was just after midnight when the family were preparing for a one-year religious function for their father who passed away when masked gunmen armed pounced on them.

The Police say the bandits took cash and jewelry during the ordeal.
Dead is 58 yr. old Fazal Shaheed of 18 Albion, Corentyne Berbice, while his brothers Talin and Shalim Shaheed were identified as the injured.

The two men made the journey from Canada and the USA for the function which according to their elder brother Raymond will now have to turn into a wake.

The Police have since detained a resident of the area and are currently in search of others said to be involved in the shooting. 

The Police were out in their numbers taking statements from relatives, while the local forensic team took photographs of the crime scene.

The Police in a release to the media said a number of spent shells were retrieved from the shooting scene.
The brother’s emotional mother who has lived most of her life and raised her children in the area could not contain her emotions. Raymond Shaheed says this senseless killing must stop.
