Omali Rogers, one of two men sought by the police in relation to the murder of policeman Lloyd Cameron and the Albouystown assault that left three persons dead, might have fled the country.
The other suspect, Paul Pindleton, is also still at large.
A senior police source told Stabroek News yesterday that the 24-year-old Rogers, of 83 Amelia’s Ward, Mackenzie, Linden, might have fled to Canada. However there is no immigration record supporting this, prompting the police to believe that if he had skipped the country, it was done illegally. It is unclear when exactly Rogers might have left.
The man was earlier this year placed on bail for a number of offences with which he was charged. At the time he was appearing before Magistrate Adrian Thompson at the Christianburg Court in Linden.
However, two weeks ago, the police launched the hunt for Rogers and 20-year-old Pindleton, whose last address was given as 10 Joseph Pollydore Street, Lodge, after Cameron was murdered in Sophia.
Rogers, for whom several wanted bulletins were issued last year, was found hiding in the trunk of a car on November 21. The driver of that car, Sherwin Dalgetty, was found shot to death recently on the access road to GDF’s Camp Groomes on the Soesdyke-Linden Highway.
The police had said that Rogers was a member of the late Linden ‘Blackie’ London’s gang and up to November was being sought in relation to at least nine robberies in the Linden area. Rogers was subsequently charged indictably with two counts of armed robbery and appeared at the Christianburg Magistrate’s Court on November 28.
The police are still urging anyone with information concerning Pindleton and Rogers to contact them on telephone numbers 225-8196, 226-1326, 225-3650, 226-6978, 225-2317, 225-3061 and 226-7065.
