A Bourda Market vendor is now traumatised and scared for her life after she was beaten and robbed in her yard on Saturday night.
Sixty-year-old Basmattie Sookhai related to Stabroek News yesterday that she, along with her son, Mark, and two boys who stay with her at her Industry, East Coast Demerara home sell at the market every day and return home during the night. While it was supposed to be a normal Saturday night where they would go home and unload the van, count their earnings for the day and relax, it took a traumatic turn after two armed men stormed into their yard around 9 PM.
