Popular events promoter Colin Mack has found himself in hot water once more, this time he was arrested at around 08:00 hrs yesterday at his South Ruimveldt residence after assaulting a woman. Reports reaching Kaieteur News stated that the police swooped down at the man’s residence after receiving a call from neighbours about a disturbance at his residence. According to sources, the police had to break down the man’s front door to gain access into the house. The source further told this publication that once the police were inside, the officers quickly observed a female who was covered in blood.

The woman who is said to be in her late 20’s was taken to the Georgetown Hospital for medical treatment.
Mack was taken into custody and up to press time, he was still being detained at the Brickdam Police Station.
Hospital sources yesterday told Kaieteur News that when the doctors started questioning the woman, she simply told them she was in an accident.
“All she is telling the doctors is that she was in an accident….even though her injuries do not add up with an accident” said the source.
The embattled promoter was last year charged with rape and had been committed to stand trial in the High Court, after a prima facie case was made out against him.
Mack is presently on $250,000 bail, which was granted in the High Court.

Mission Statement

The Mark Benschop Foundation was officially launched in March 2008 by its founder and chairman Mark Benschop and other concerned Guyanese and well wishers in the United States of America. What started as a small operation geared toward helping those in need has grown so large that they were forced to move their offices to a whole building in East Street where the vast amount of people responding to their generosity could be accommodated.
