In March of last year Burglars stole 40 Grand From Dangriga Sub Treasury and no one was arrested. Another burglary happened yesterday, only this time the burglars took the whole safe from the treasury!
The compol speculates that the thieves are familiar with the treasury building and its operations. But could it be the same group of individuals carrying out the same heist each time? Here's what the compol had to say.
Chester Williams, Commissioner of Police
"Yes, I know that the safe was stolen. I'm not too sure of the content in terms of the quantum of money that was in that safe. But again, it clearly shows that this burglary was committed by people who know exactly how the treasury operates."
"And as a matter of fact, they even went to the extent of turning off the power to the building to disable the camera system from recording before entering the building, so that could only be done by people who understand how inside the treasury building is located and the situations of the cameras on that particular building."
"So it's something that the police are looking at. We have to interview people who works there as well to see what they know. At the end of the day, we cannot leave nothing out. This is second or third time there has been burglary at that treasury in Dangriga and I think that it is too much. So the police will be probing deep to see if we can identify those persons who are responsible."
