Two carpenters are wanted by Police for the attempted murder of 27-year-old Kemraj Ramcharran, a gas station pump attendant of Cotton Field, Essequibo Coast who was brutally attacked on October 30.
Police on Wednesday identified the suspects as 25-year-old Ron Combermack of Henrietta, Essequibo Coast and 19-year-old Junior Seferino also of Henrietta and of Leopold Street, Georgetown.
According to reports, on October 30, the pump attendant was chopped several times to his head and beaten after he was threatened by a customer over a month ago.
The incident occurred at the Rif Gas Station in Anna Regina.
Ramcharran suffered three chops to his head and a broken hand. The man has been a pump attendant for the past eight years and since the attack has been unable to work. He is a father of one and had to relocate from Essequibo for his safety and medical treatment.
According to Ramcharran, on October 30 at around 21:15 hrs, he observed a tinted motorcar pull into the gas station. Naturally, Ramcharran thought the driver wanted to purchase gas. The pump attendant recalled that he approached the vehicle and waited for approximately five minutes for the driver to open the gas tank.
A male passenger then rolled down the window and reportedly verbally abused Ramcharran.
Ramcharran explained that when the driver exited the vehicle, he asked him to open the gas tank, but the driver reportedly threatened him, saying he would “jook him up.”
He further recalled that he told the driver that if they continue to behave disorderly that he will not sell them and so they left the gas station.
At about 22:00 hrs that same night, Ramcharran said while he was closing the pump, he felt an impact to his head and collapsed.
He awoke a day later in the Georgetown Public Hospital.
CCTV footage of the incident shows Ramcharran being attacked by two persons at the pump before making their escape.
