The 25-year-old CC reported to the Latour police station on February 16, after he had assaulted an employee of a telecom company and destroyed the window of a service vehicle. The suspect was arrested and detained after consultation with the Public Prosecution Service. On that day, the Command Center passed on a message to the Latour police that serious assault and destruction had taken place on Latourweg.
The police came to the site for an investigation, which revealed that employees of a telecom company were busy with work along the public road. They stated that an impatient young man who presumably minded that he had no Internet access came to them and asked how long it would be before he could access the Internet again. The employees asked him to be patient, as the work would still take some time.
This response was not well received by CC and when he noticed that the internet problem had not yet been solved, he armed himself with a beam, with which he assaulted the foreman and then smashed the side window of the service vehicle. After the deed, he left the place.
The seriously injured employee was personally transferred to the Emergency Department of the Academic Hospital Paramaribo for medical assistance. The accused CC was brought before and after consultation with the Public Prosecution Service, detained.
