Wanted: Edwin Jose Mounos Rivas
Edwin Jose Mounos Rivas, a 31-year-old Venezuelan national who resides at Tuschen, East Bank Essequibo (EBE), is wanted by the Police for questing in connection with the murder of another Venezuelan national, Alejandro Máximo Farrera.
It has been reported that Farrera was fatally stabbed on Sunday evening, while on his way to collect his wife and nine-year-old daughter who was celebrating her birthday.
The 29-year-old Farrera, a father of two, had been celebrating his elder daughter’s birthday earlier in the day, but his wife had later taken the girl for a birthday outing. Farrera was called to pick them up at the head of their street, but was confronted by two assailants.

Eyewitnesses detailed that a brief argument had erupted between Farrera and the men before he was fatally attacked. One of the assailants had allegedly brandished a knife, with which he stabbed Farrera four times before fleeing the scene on his bicycle. Police suspect that the motive behind the attack could be robbery.
Family members revealed that Farrera bled to death after collapsing on the roadway. They have expressed their deep sorrow, especially as the deceased man’s wife and daughters had returned to find him lying lifeless in a pool of blood.
The Police are asking anyone with information on the whereabouts of the wanted man to contact them on these telephone numbers: 225-6940, 225-8196, 226-7476, 227-1149, 911, or at the nearest Police station.
