The Guyana Police Force is seeking the assistance of the public in locating a man who is wanted for questioning in relation to the recent abduction of a businessman.
In a wanted bulletin issued yesterday, the police force said that Winston Sherlock Wade called ‘Quarters’ whose last known addresses are Lot 59 Stanleytown, New Amsterdam, Berbice and Lot 25 Oleander Gardens, East Coast Demerara (ECD) is wanted for questioning in relation to the abduction of Tarzim Gafoor.
Gafoor was kidnapped from his Lot 39-40 Windsor Forest, West Coast Demerara home on Saturday morning around 10 while he was escorting `Quarters’ into his house. He was freed about an hour after when his captors realized that they had the wrong man.
This newspaper had previously reported that Gafoor was escorting `Quarters’ into his house when two men held onto him and pushed him into a white car, which `Quarters’ also allegedly entered.
They then drove him to Georgetown and while in the vicinity of Mandela Avenue another car pulled up alongside the vehicle. At that point, this newspaper was told, `Quarters’ asked the occupants of the other vehicle if Gafoor was the person they were looking for. However, one of them told him that they had the wrong person. As a result, Gafoor was put out of the car and both vehicles drove away.
Anyone with information that may lead to the arrest of Wade is asked to contact the police on telephone numbers 268-2343, 268- 2298, 268-2222, 225-6411, 225-2227, 911 or the nearest police station.
All information will be treated in strict confidence.
