Kaieteur News – The owner of RI RI FU supermarket located in Friendship, East Bank Demerara, along with the building’s security guard and another victim, were robbed by three armed bandits on Monday, who took the business’ surveillance equipment and footage before escaping.
According to a police report, the 52-year-old owner of the establishment opened for business at 7:20 hrs. After opening, the victim went to man the cash register when he observed three individuals wearing dark-coloured hoodies entering the supermarket.
The victim reportedly observed that one of the suspects went up behind the unarmed security guard who was stationed at the front of the building and dealt him a blow to the back of his head, causing him to collapse on the floor. The suspect then proceeded to bind the man with a black plastic strap before doing the same to the owner.
The bandits then began to search the victims before taking a quantity of Digicel phone cards valued at $120,000, a Samsung A21s cell phone valued at $60,000 and a blue Vivo cell phone valued at $40,000. One of the suspects then guarded the two victims that were tied while the other two headed upstairs.
The two suspects subsequently approached a third victim who was upstairs and proceeded to bind him before taking that person’s cell phone, valued at $46,000 and ransacking a bedroom located within the upper flat of the building. The two suspects afterwards returned downstairs to remove two CCTV Digital Video Recorders (DVRs) before fleeing from the scene in an unknown direction.
A female employee of the establishment subsequently arrived and observed the bounded men on the floor and began to untie them. Upon making checks in the bedroom, the first victim observed that $660,000 in cash was missing. Investigations are currently underway.
