Businessman robbed of cash, jewelry

A CLUB owner was robbed of nearly $8,000 in cash and jewelry while liming on Saturday night. Mitra Gangoo, proprietor of Obsession Recreation Club, was in company with two friends at Chapelle Street, Claxton Bay, when three men — two armed with guns and the other with a knife — accosted them. Police said Gangoo’s two friends managed to escape, but he fell victim to the armed bandits. The club owner was robbed of two gold beras (bracelets), an ID band, two rings, two chains and a quantity of cash — a total value of $7,790. The bandits escaped on foot. A report was made to the St Margaret’s police and WPC Charles is continuing inquiries.
