And, there have also been no arrests for another execution which occurred last week. On Thursday, 44 year old Jermaine Balthazar Flores was found on the side of the Frank's Eddy Road with has hands and feet bound and with multiple gunshot wounds to the head.
Police say they searched a home in Belmopan where they gathered certain evidence:..
ACP Joseph Myvette- Head of NCIB
"So far it is still an ongoing investigation. The police have followed several leads. A home in Belmopan was searched on Saturday where a number of items were found which at this point in time we are not able to say whether those were connected to the crime scene."
Jules Vasquez- Reporter
"Now, sir, we know that what was not covered in last Thursday's press brief, which I missed, is the fact that this gentleman, as we understand it, was bound- hand and foot- with some kind of wire, I am told. Is it believed that he was killed someplace and then dumped there?"
ACP Joseph Myvette
"That seems to be the theory or the lead that the investigators are following. The scene where it was found is not consistent to say whether or not the incident did occur there."
Balthazar is from Dangriga, but also has ties to Belize City. He is well known to police - and his brother was murdered some years ago. He also has another sibling who is currently on remand for the murder of a prominent gang figure.
