Overseas-based couple robbed in Brickery home invasion

Police are searching for three suspects who robbed an overseas-based couple in an armed attack at Brickery, East Bank Demerara, on Wednesday afternoon, just hours after they arrived in the country.

Commander of ‘A’ Division Clifton Hicken told Stabroek News that the police are investigating the armed robbery of Edwin and Nazeema Persaud, who they believe were trailed by the gunmen from the Cheddi Jagan International Airport to their relative’s home at Brickery.  Hicken said the police were making some head-way in the case and they are currently on the lookout for the Toyota Premio car that was used by the robbers.

According to neighbours, the robbery occurred around 3pm on Wednesday,
