Tomb raiders arrested
Police have arrested two fishermen who allegedly broke into a tomb and stole money between March 17 and 19, 2024, at Murphy Dam Cemetery Rosignol Village, West Bank Berbice.
In custody are 31-year-old Khalil Madramootoo, also known as Prito and 38-year-old Lindon Davis, also known as ‘Mama G’, both of Murphy Dam.
Police Headquarters reported that Madramootoo admitted that he and Davis vandalized the tomb of 52-year-old Muneshwar Jawahir of Rosignol.
He claimed that Davis was the person who broke into the tomb, and together they stole about $28,000 cash from the coffin.
Davis has since denied any involvement in the incident.
They both remain in custody. Jawahir was laid to rest at the Murphy Dam cemetery in Region Five on February 9, 2024.
