-was here for funeral

A Canada-based Guyanese man is nursing gunshot wounds in the High Dependency Unit of the Georgetown after bandits attacked and robbed him on Monday night.

Alan Jagnarine came to Guyana on Saturday to attend the funeral of his friend Ronald Bassoo, the businessman who was killed in an accident last week on the Vryheid’s Lust public road.

A relative told Stabroek News that Jagnarine is staying at his cousin’s home at Calendar Street, Albouystown. The woman explained that she, Jagnarine’s cousin Nafeeza Khan and a teenage boy lived at the house. She said she was resting in bed around 11.30 pm when Jagnarine came home and Khan went downstairs to open the gate for him. She said soon after about eight gunshots rang out and “I hear she come running into the house screaming for help…We thought bandits were attacking us so we just stay quietly in bed and waited.” …..
