Region Four Chairman, Daniel Seeram, and his father-in-law are currently being investigated by the police after reports that the duo threatened each other with their licensed firearms.
According to a police report, during the wee hours of Sunday, Seeram and his father-in-law, Shaheed Hamid, were at Movietown Mall when an argument ensued between them.
Hamid told police that Seeram drew a black handgun from his pant waist, cocked it, and threatened to kill him.
The commotion caught the attention of the Mall security resulting in an intervention with Seeram being escorted off the premises.
However later that same morning, Seeram visited the Alberttown Police Station and made a report against his father-in-law. As a result, Hamid was asked to report to the station and both parties were questioned.
During the questioning, Seeram told police that he went to the establishment to speak to his wife about an ongoing issue and Hamid intervened. This led to an exchange of words and Hamid drew his firearm.
Hamid, however denied the allegation of withdrawing his firearm.
Subsequently, both men were arrested and later released on their own recognizance. Their firearms along with ammunition were confiscated by the police.
Investigations are continuing.
