A 36-year-old resident of Lot 55 Suddie Housing Scheme, Region Two (Pomeroon-Supenaam), was disheartened when she returned home on Saturday evening only to discover thieves had broken into her two-storey house.

Nirmala Singh reportedly left her home early Saturday morning with the ferry to visit Georgetown and returned in the evening.

Around 18:00hrs on Saturday evening when she returned, she went to the upper-flat of her home and noticed sand in the washroom and other areas of the building.

In the washroom, the louvre window panes were missing.

Singh, on doing some checks, found that her money and jewellery were missing and made a report to the Suddie Police Station.

A total of G$360 000 in cash, along with G$900,000 worth in jewellery, was missing. According to Singh, her jewellery included diamond and gold chains, earrings and rings.

Three suspects were held but two were later released. Police visited the scene and fingerprints were taken. Singh is calling on the commander of ‘G’ Division, Khalid Pareshram, to launch a full investigation into the robbery.
