Dear Editor,
Kaieteur News – Newsflash may be deemed to be something that happened instantly and is worthy to bring to the attention of the public immediately. This may manifest via the medium of the media, whether that be the newspapers, radios, TV’s and/or FB and all the other social media.
A gruesome murder occurred Tuesday morning opposite the Leonora Hindu Temple. A vagrant who was resting on a vendor’s stall on the Leonora market road which also is the entrance to the Leonora Hindu Temple, was brutally chopped all over the body and subsequently died. Another vagrant who usually illegally domicile in the old, empty, dilapidated building next door to the Leonora Mandir (the former Leonora Maha Sabha Secondary School), is the primary suspect for this devious act. It must be noted that, reports were filed with the police about these dangerous characters lurking around the Mandir’s compound where children and females usually visit. Also, the Mandir was recently burglarised and expensive equipment were removed.
To date, this worrisome news was not reported by any media. There is nothing in the news to alert the public about this dangerous character at large, still running amok and seen in the neighbourhood. There is no “wanted” picture posted anywhere. How can the news media miss this worrisome incident? Yet, a picketing exercise at the Leonora NIS office on Wednesday morning made the news in the newspapers. Something is definitely missing in communication.
Respectfully,
Jai Lall
