The Guyana Police Force (GPF) has embarked on an operation to target carjackers and will now zoom in on bodywork shops since they are suspected of buying the parts from these hijacked vehicles.
Acting Crime Chief Paul Williams said in light of the regular occurrences of carjacking, he and other officers, including Acting Commissioner of Police David Ramnarine, recently had a discussion and some strategies were put in place.
Williams said that while the police have not yet confirmed that a gang is in operation, a campaign has been launched to tackle the crime. “We have some serious campaigns that we will go after persons who have bodywork shops,” Williams said.
