Man robbed of $9M at Alexander Village

Police are investigating a $9M robbery at Alexander Village which occurred on Thursday last, but have complained about not getting very far because of a lack of adequate information from the victim.

Reports are that two men armed with guns robbed Mahindranauth Ganesh of $9M minutes after he uplifted the money from a home in the area. Ganesh was in a taxi leaving Alexander Village when the men threw a brick at the vehicle shattering the windscreen.

Police say when the car came to a halt the men ordered Ganesh and driver out of the car and drove away with the money. The car was found abandoned at Sophia on Friday morning. Ganesh declined to give a police statement, which the police said have stymied enquiries into the robbery. They said Ganesh did not give adequate information to enable them to effectively conduct a proper investigation.
