May 7 execution…

No further progress in Police probe

THE Police have reached no further in the investigations since the execution-style murder of city businessman, Orvin Millington, nicknamed ‘Champo’, 30, of Lot WW7 North East La Penitence, Crime Chief Leslie James reported Tuesday.But he said the probe is continuing to find the gunman who shot the victim in the head.
Millington suffered one gunshot wound as he was leaving Curtis Street, Albouystown, also in Georgetown, where he was playing card games with friends.
A post mortem revealed that he died from shock and haemorrhage due to the gunshot that Police said was fired about 00:50 hrs on May 7, 2014, when a man approached him and asked whether he remembered him. However, without waiting for a response, the man discharged a round, hitting Millington and then escaped.
The wounded Millington was pronounced dead on arrival at the Georgetown Public Hospital (GPH).
His sister, Abby Millington told the Guyana Chronicle that, shortly before the shooting, her brother had assured them that he would be returning home in a little while.
The Muslim father of four, who died before the fifth was born, had another brother who met his death in a similar way.
Four years ago, that sibling, Vibert ‘Vibey’ Weeks was shot dead in front of a popular night spot on Robb Street, in the city, too and, to this day, no one has been arrested for that killing.
However, while still seeking justice for that brother’s murder, the surviving siblings are very disturbed by the latest one.
