The Guyana Police Force has issued wanted bulletins for three men in connection with the attempted murder of businessman and contractor, Safraz Khan.

The businessman survived an execution attempt on the 6th July, 2023, just outside his Campbellville home.

Investigators are asking that anyone with information on the whereabouts of the three suspects, contact the nearest Police station or call 911.

On the night of July 6, 2023, the businessman, Safraz Khan was sitting in his car outside his Austin’s Place, Campbellville residence, when he came under heavy gunfire from a gunman who was dressed in yellow hooded raincoat.

The businessman who is a licensed firearm holder, reportedly returned fire when he came under attack. However, he was hit multiple times to the body.

A surveillance video recording from a nearby property captured the raincoat wearing gunman running away from the scene and jumping into a grey heavily tinted Toyota motorcar that sped away from the scene.

The injured Safraz Khan was rushed to a city hospital, where emergency doctors saved his life. He later sought additional treatment overseas.

A motive for the attack remains unknown.
