Ricardo Rodrigues, a close associate of jailed drug kingpin Roger Khan, was mowed down by gunmen at the Guyana Motor Racing and Sports Club (GMR&SC) in Georgetown yesterday, just days after being released on bail following his detention over the unearthing of an arms cache in Lethem.

Three other persons, Aubrey Henry, Michael Hopkinson and Jean Le Blanc, were wounded in the shooting
