Man wanted for murder in Guyana nabbed in Suriname

…handed over to local authorities

Authorities in neighbouring Suriname have arrested 31-year-old Carlos Evans for whom a wanted bulletin was issued in March 2020 in Guyana.
Evans, who has been wanted in connection with the murder of Tony Bisnauth, committed at Carriage Road in Rosignol, West Coast Berbice, Region Five (Mahaica-Berbice), has since been handed over to local authorities.
Police on Friday said that authorities in the Dutch-speaking territory deported Evans, and he has been placed in custody of the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) in Georgetown.
Police, on March 18, 2020, issued a wanted bulletin for Medellin Orlando Evans and Carlos Evans, known as “Beast”.
Rosignol businessman Tony Bisnauth, 78, was killed on his birthday. It was reported that Bisnauth was celebrating his birthday with close relatives and friends outside his snackette at Rosignol when three men, armed with two guns and a cutlass, pounced on them and demanded cash and valuables. Bisnauth
did not comply with the bandits’ demand, and was shot in the head. The Evans brothers were later identified as two of the suspects.

In September last year, Medellin Orlando Evans was shot and killed in Suriname.
He had reportedly had a heated argument with a Surinamese, who has since been identified as ‘Quinten’. Quinten told the Dutch Police that he had owed Evans SRD 300, but did not have it when approached. He said Evans had pulled out a gun and pulled the trigger, but the gun did not fire, and in retaliation, he pulled out a sharp object and stabbed Evans, who reportedly died on the spot.
Meanwhile, reports are that local investigators were on Thursday able to get vital information from Carlos Evans as they continue to investigate the 2020 murder. (G4)
