GEORGETOWN, Guyana: The Guyana Police Force has re-issued bulletins for several persons wanted in connection with the murder of Minister of Agriculture Satyadeow Sawh, as well as for other murders and serious offences.

Some of the men are known to the police only by aliases. The four who are known to police are Rondell Rawlins, called "Fine Man," Orlando Andrews, called "Biscuit," or "Jeffrey," David Zammett, called David Leander, or "Bullet," and Richard Daniels, called "Chucky." Those known only by aliases are "Cash," and "Not Nice," and "Sonny". All of the suspects are believed to be from Buxton or Agricola, two communities that have been used as a base by gun-toting bandits.

Police officials said that, while the suspects have gone underground, there is a strong belief that they emerge to commit major crimes. A reward of US$10,000 is being offered for information leading to each suspect's arrest.

Minister Sawh and three others were assassinated on March 22, 2006 at his home, located some eight miles from the capital city of Georgetown.

A 19-year-old youth, who is facing charges in connection with the slaying of five press print workers at a local media house, was also charged with the Sawh murders two weeks ago.
