THREE armed bandits entered a flat concrete house in Lamaha Spring, Georgetown and tied up two women before robbing them of cash, electronics and a quantity of gold jewellery in the wee hours of Thursday morning.

A 52-year-old teacher and a 50-year-old programme assistant at the United Nations were sleeping when the bandits attacked.
Reports indicate that three bandits, two armed with handguns entered the well fenced yard and gained access to the three bedroom home through a door on the eastern side of the building.

The robbers bound the women hands with scotch tape, raided their home before making good their escape. One of the women managed to untie herself after the bandits left and made contact with the police. Crime scene ranks visited the house and took statements as investigations continue.
