A guard brutally killed and a generator stolen. A particularly violent attack occurred during the night of August 19-20 at a house under construction in Androhibe, in the 5th arrondissement of Antananarivo. On August 20, around 9 a.m., gendarmes were alerted after discovering a guard severely assaulted within the property. The victim had suffered violent blows to the head. A long metal bar, believed to have been used in the assault, was found near his body. The attackers also fled with a large generator belonging to the construction site. Alerted, gendarmes launched an appeal for witnesses to identify the perpetrators. Investigations quickly led to a young man who was arrested and questioned by investigators. He reportedly admitted his participation in the attack. According to his statements, he and his accomplices entered the property at night and waited for the right moment to act. When the guard left to relieve himself, the suspects allegedly followed him upon his return and attacked him with the metal bar. In total, three individuals suspected of participating in the attack were arrested. Investigators also discovered that another guard working near the scene received and concealed the stolen generator. The suspects are currently in the hands of investigators. Following the procedure, they will be presented before the courts to answer for the charges against them.
