| The security forces say that evidence gathered so far indicates that wanted man Rondell Rawlins called ‘Fine Man’ and his gang might have been responsible for the deaths of eight miners whose burnt remains were found last Saturday in their camp at Lindo Creek, Berbice River.Those remains were flown to the city yesterday. They were described as eight skulls,Cheap Jerseys From China, 16 arm bones, 16 leg bones and not much else.An assessment by the Joint Services suggests that Rawlins boasted about the massacre while in the process of hijacking a minibus early last week. This suggestion is based on reports from people on the hijacked bus.The document further stated that ballistics tests on the four spent shells recovered from the scene revealed that one of them matched one of the weapons that were recovered by the security forces from slain gunmen Cecil Ramcharran called ‘Uncle Willie’ and Robin Chung, called ‘Chung Boy’.The others matched those recovered from crime scenes at Bartica and Triumph, East Coast Demerara.Owner of the mining camp where the miners were killed, Leonard Arokium, had expressed strong belief that his employees were killed by members of the security forces operating in the area.He had explained that it would have been foolish for ‘Fine Man’ and his gang who were fleeing from the security forces to risk going to his camp and take the time to burn the bodies of his employees, among whom was his son Dax, after killing them.According to the statement, Rawlins and gang members were in the Christmas Falls area located some 300 miles up the Berbice River.The assessment said that Christmas Falls is located in a concession owned by Pioneer Investment Incorporated which is controlled by the Bynoe family.The assessment posited that following a heightened security presence in the previous safe haven of Buxton, in the wake of the Lusignan and Bartica massacres,Cheap NHL Jerseys Online, the gang moved to Linden and thence to Christmas Falls after a series of Joint Services operations in the mining town.The police believe that the move to Christmas falls was facilitated by Philip Bynoe who is known to have knowledge of the area.Following the raid on Rawlins’s hideout, the security forces had called on all miners in the area to vacate the area.One such operation was at Lindo Creek, 16 kilometres from Christmas Falls and according to the document, Arokium’s men did not see it fit to do so.Today, Police Commissioner Henry Greene said that Arokium’s admitted call to a policewoman to ascertain if he can venture into the area is proof that he was aware that the security forces were operating in the area and that there was a call for miners to vacate.“Arokium has seen the consequence of his actions and has felt the wrath of ‘Fine Man’ who it is felt was betrayed by Bynoe, a close associate who had guaranteed a safe hideout,” the police report posited.Acting Police Commissioner Henry Greene told members of the media that the police are still looking for Bynoe who is wanted for treason.The report said that ‘Fine Man’ is unique in responding to persons who betray him.The police said that he is known to decapitate persons and burn their bodies as were witnessed in the village of Buxton and Agricola a few years ago.“The fashion of death of the eight miners and the disposal of their remains is the work and characteristic of ‘Fine Man’ and which are evident in this particular case,” the report stated.Greene said that some of the dredge owner’s accounts are found to be inconsistent with his story.He had refused to cooperate with the police even after a request by senior officials to visit him at his residence.According to investigators, information revealed that subsequent to discovery of the miners’ remains,Chelsea Jersey, Rawlins and his gang hijacked a minibus that was proceeding to Linden with passengers.It was reported that Rawlins reportedly boasted about killing the miners and burning their bodies which the Joint Services were unable to locate.But the prolonged silence of the security forces allowed for speculation to influence the public in a way that would make them appear culpable.However, the analysis said that the Joint Services stand correct in withholding information and are only prepared to release such once there is extensive investigation into the Lindo Creek incident.“Even with the confirmation that the spent shells found at Arokium’s campsite match the weapons recovered at the Goat Farm location,Cheap NFL Jerseys, the Joint Services,Nike Air Max Cheap Wholesale, in its most professional posture and in the face of unpleasant criticisms,wholesale nfl jerseys, is determined to make sound pronouncement based on detailed investigative work,” the report said.President Bharrat Jagdeo had announced that Guyana has sought forensic assistance from the United States of America.However, the Acting Police Commissioner, when questioned, could not say when the experts will arrive to commence the work. |
