Georgetown – As bandits continue their brazen attacks on citizens, the police are leaving no stones unturned to go after them, particularly those is the possession of firearms. The move according to a senior officer, is to get behind those responsible for the illegal arms trade.
The Police Commissioner recently alluded to the many guns in society which can be bought and rented with ease. Police patrols continue to scour the known areas for these illegal activities, mostly the heavy populated market areas in the city. Similar exercises are being carried out in other parts of the country as the police try to find those responsible for the illegal trading in arms and ultimately plug the gap from where these guns originate. Only yesterday a woman was held at gunpoint as the armed robber stole her bag containing a large sum of money in the Robb & King streets area. He was confronted by a police patrol and ran back to his victim with the bag which he returned to her in one piece. He was subsequently arrested and led police to the man who gave him the .32 Walther pistol and six rounds. Both are now in custody.
