Security guard wanted for $13.1M heist at Giftland’s Fantasy Game Lounge

Police are on the hunt for a security officer attached to Castle Security after he robbed the Fantasy Game Lounge, Giftland Mall, Turkeyen, East Coast Demerara (ECD) of $13.1 million on Sunday.

At the time of the robbery, the 24-year-old security officer was on duty at Fantasy Game Lounge and was armed with the security service 9mm pistol and 17 live rounds of ammunition.
Preliminary investigation revealed that at 5:30h on the day in question, the 21-year-old supervisor at Fantasy Game Lounge, Raywat Sankar, exited the cashier area to assist a female floor supervisor in cleaning the gaming area since no customer was there at the time.
The suspect, however, approached the two employees, whipped out his firearm, pointed it in their direction, and discharged one round in the air after which he demanded Sankar to open the electronic door to the cashier area.
Fearful for his life, Sankar complied and the suspect then ordered him and the female supervisor into the cashier’s room where he further instructed Sankar to open the vault and place all the cash into a garbage basket.
Police stated that the suspect then walked out of the building with the cash.
Close Circuit Television cameras (CCTV) at the Giftland mall captured the suspect walking out of the Giftland access road, turned west on the Railway Embankment and then stopped a motorcar bearing registration number PZZ 569 which sped off the scene. The matter was reported and the police received one spent 9mm shell at the establishment. The suspect’s home was subsequently searched but no cash was found. The police also stated that efforts are being made to locate the motorcar.
The police have since issued a wanted bulletin for Rakameem Nicholasm, the suspect in the Fantasy Gaming Lounge robbery. His last known address is given as West Ruimveldt, Georgetown.
