The two men who are wanted for questioning in relation to the murder/piracy on four young Berbice fishermen have been arrested by the authorities in Suriname.
O’Brian Fraser called “Shines” and Anonth Boodrage called “Andy”, were arrested late Friday and are in Police custody in the Dutch-speaking territory.
The Guyana Police Force had issued a wanted bulletin for the duo.
The men are expected to be handed over to Guyanese authorities sometime next week as Suriname Police are also looking to press charges against them.
The men, who are both fishermen, are accused of orchestrating the attack on the SARA 1 which has left two Guyanese fishermen dead and two missing.
On October 5, boat captain Vishnu Seeram, 20; Marvin Tamessar, 20; Lamar Petrie, 20, and Kawal Kissoon set sail from a private wharf at Number 65 Village hoping for a successful trip.
They were expected to return some 14 days later, however about six days later their vessel was found abandoned at the Wellington Park Foreshore with bloodstains; the engine and a piece of seine were missing.
On October 12 and 13, the decomposed bodies of Kissoon and Petrie were discovered on the Abary, Region 5 foreshore with their hands and feet tied.
Both remains were positively identified by relatives.
Meanwhile, thus far three persons Narine Dhanraj, 30; Suresh Sundat, 22 and Lennox Grimmond were charged and remanded to prison for the murders of the four fishermen.
The trio is expected to return to court on November 7 at the Whim Magistrate’s Court.
