The family of 27-year-old Fazil Haniff, who was allegedly shot to his stomach by his wife’s lover, is accusing the Police of dragging their feet when it comes to the investigation since the suspect is in plain sight and is yet to be apprehended.
Haniff, a resident of Mon Repos Pasture, East Coast Demerara (ECD), was shot once to his stomach on November 17 at his home. The incident occurred around 21:00h after the suspect visited the man’s home where he was accused of having an affair with the man’s wife.
The father of two remains hospitalised at the Georgetown Public Hospital, where his condition has been fluctuating ever since.
The man’s brother, Nazim Haniff, the Toshao of Yarakita Village in Region One (Barima-Waini), told Guyana Times that his brother had emergency surgery to remove his spleen since the shooting.
“Since my brother get shoot, the Police didn’t tell us anything since. The man name Ron and he from Albouystown and he just walking free and the Police just not doing anything as my brother need justice,” he related.
Nazim added that the suspect has been contacting his sister-in-law since the incident. He claims that the affair, between the suspect and his sister-in-law, has been allegedly going on for over a year.
