Chinese nationals beaten, robbed of $1.2M in broad daylight

Two Chinese nationals were relieved of $1.2 million in cash in broad daylight by four men at Leopold and Breda Streets, Werk-en-Rust, Georgetown, on Thursday.
Police stated that the victims from Providence, East Bank Demerara (EBD), were travelling in a minibus when they stopped at the corner of Leopold and Breda Streets and were approached by four males.
One of the suspects reportedly opened the driver-side door and removed two black haversacks from between the front seats, which reportedly contained $1.2 million and one cellular phone, but not before dealing both victims one cuff each to their faces. The suspects then fled the scene. Footage collected from nearby CCTV is being reviewed as part of the investigation.
