Victor Bobb, one of two men apprehended after the attempted robbery at Chateau Margot on Tuesday morning that left a businessman and later an attacker dead, was moved from the Georgetown Public Hospital (GPHC) to the Sparendaam Police Station at noon.
The 35-year-old man is alleged to have been one of six men who attacked the L&D Sales Centre in Second Street, Chateau Margot. He was reportedly armed with a gun and fatally shot businessman Dennis Ramah after the man chopped him to the shoulder.
Desiree Bobb, the injured man’s mother, told Stabroek News at GPHC that her son still has a bullet lodged in his right foot and she does not believe that he is in any condition to be moved around.
Since Bobb was admitted to the medical institution on Tuesday, the woman said, he has not been seen by any doctor nor has he been recommended for surgery. The woman further said that when she questioned police about whether they intended to charge Bobb they told her that they were given no such instruction.
Her son, she said, was taken to Sparendaam to “assist police with investigations”. The woman said that she was further told that Bobb would be kept there and she was allowed to take him meals during regular visiting time.
“I don’t know how they could take him there in that condition,” she said and added that, “I really don’t know is what happen so I really can’t tell you if I believe he do this or not.”
When Stabroek News visited GPHC just before noon several police officers were present and a van was parked outside the entrance of the Male Surgical Ward where Victor had been admitted. Several minutes later Victor, with the assistance of police, made his way to the vehicle. The man’s feet were shackled.
