CRIME Chief Seelall Persaud disclosed, yesterday, that the police have new information in relation to the July 31 murder of Bel Air businessman Frank Persaud and are looking for a suspect.

The 54-year-old victim, of Lot One Area ‘L’, Bel Air, Georgetown, was killed at his residence during a robbery, but although several persons were questioned, no one was held for the crime and investigations are ongoing.
Persaud said they are hoping to ‘crack the case’ shortly.
The killing took place about 20:30 hrs that Saturday when three men, posing as Customs officials, entered Persaud’s home for the second time.
They had visited the house the day before, demanding to check goods that were in a storage bond and indicated they would return the next day.
The following day, Persaud invited them into his premises and there they attacked and beat him.
Then they told his wife, Bibi Nalisha Mohamed, that he was calling her, and when she entered the bond with their two-year-old daughter they tied them up with duct tape, during which time the woman observed her husband lying, motionless, on the ground covered with a piece of plastic.
The attacking trio proceeded to ransack the place and took away a laptop computer, a quantity of jewellery and an undisclosed sum of money, with all of which they escaped.
Bibi Mohamed, subsequently, managed to free herself and child and raised an alarm.
Her husband was taken to the Georgetown Public Hospital (GPH) where he was pronounced dead on arrival.
A post mortem performed on the body revealed he died of strangulation.
