A uniformed soldier was among four persons held in a car with two unlicensed guns yesterday morning and army Chief-of-Staff Brigadier General Mark Phillips says that he will have to face the full brunt of the law.
Police, in a statement, said around 10.30 am, ranks stopped a vehicle with “obscure” number plates at Regent Street and Avenue of the Republic, Georgetown, and conducted a search that uncovered an unlicensed sawn-off pump action shotgun and an unlicensed .38 revolver with six matching rounds.
The vehicle, police noted, was “being driven by a Lance Corporal of the Guyana Defence Force who was dressed in uniform and a hood.”
