Agricola youth wanted for murder reportedly arrested in Cayenne

Days after the father of Nicholas Narine who was shot and killed earlier this year, reissued a call for justice for his son, the suspect, 27-year-old Rafael Bollers of Brutus Street, Agricola was reportedly arrested by immigration officials in Cayenne, French Guiana. This was according to well-placed sources who stated that the process has begun for him to be extradited to Guyana to face murder charge. It is unclear if Bollers is wanted in connect with any crime.
Narine of Third Street, Agricola, Greater Georgetown, was shot dead while working in an alleyway at Titus Street by Bollers. Eyewitnesses said Bollers approached Narine and opened fire before fleeing on foot. However, months after the incident, the aggrieved father, Barry Narine, told the Guyana Times, that his son’s death has left the family living in fear and frustration, as months have passed without any word from investigators. According to Barry, his son’s killing followed a series of attacks and shootings targeting his family in the weeks leading up to the incident.
He said that despite the family submitting CCTV footage and other evidence, there was no response or investigation. The father, nevertheless, stated that there were ongoing tensions between the Narine family and the Bollers family, which he believes led to his son’s murder. Relatives of the dead man described Bollers as a known troublemaker, claiming he had recently threatened their family and was involved in a previous shooting incident that left another relative injured.
Following the killing, Narine’s brother, 22-year-old electrician Keon Narine, allegedly carried out a revenge shooting at the home of Bollers’ father, 60-year-old Gideon Bollers. He reportedly fired several shots before fleeing.
Police later arrested Keon and found an AR-15 rifle and ammunition at his home. He was later remanded to prison.
Investigators recovered a 9mm shell from the murder scene and 18 spent shells from the retaliation shooting. Sometime later, Raphel’s brother, Romel Bollers, was found dead with gunshot wounds in Agricola.
