Prosecutor’s home riddled with bullets

A Police prosecutor is now counting his lucky stars after his East Bank Demerara home came under gunfire.
Corporal Heamchand Sukhna and his family came under attack at around 21:00h on Sunday while they were in their yard.
Guyana Times understands that the family, while socialising, heard loud explosions sounding like gunshots and ran for cover.
It was then two men wearing hoodies and armed with guns were seen standing in front of the home firing shots into Sukhna’s yard and in their direction.
The shooting, which was captured on CCTV cameras, lasted for about a minute before the gunmen made good their escape.
The 39-year-old Police Corporal is stationed in the Police Regional Division 4B where he serves as the Police prosecutor at the Diamond Magistrates’ Court.
Just after the incident, Police ranks responded to the scene, where two .40 spent shells and five .22 spent shells were recovered from the scene.
Reports are the shooting is linked to a matter before the court that was prosecuted by Sukhna.
An investigation has been launched.
