Several farmers in Region Five on Saturday complained of being robbed of their produce in the backdams of several villages by armed persons.
The complaints were made to Minister of Agriculture Zulfikar Mustapha, on Saturday at a community outreach held at the Rosignol Primary School.
Inshan Mooneer, 70, of D’Edward Village, told the minister that the attacks are carried out by groups of persons. “They coming with bicycles – 10 bicycles, 12 bicycles – and they get things, too, so we can’t face them up,” he said.
