“We cannot have an institution of the state reneging on its agreement with the people because there will be no further cooperation”- Mark Benschop.On September 1, 2010,Mike Modano Jersey, notorious wanted man Tyrone ‘Cobra ‘Rowe was handed over to police, and almost three years later, the police are still holding on to the $1M reward that they had offered for information leading to his arrest.Cobra’s arrest was negotiated by Social Activist Mark Benschop who plans to contact Commissioner of Police (ag) Leroy Brumell on the matter.This 2008 photo shows Tyrone Rowe called ‘Cobra’ being taken into police custody.‘Cobra”’who police had linked to a number of high profile crimes, was handed over to the police in the presence of the media, ending months of a massive manhunt that stretched from the city to the West and East Coasts of Demerara.This was after a desperate move by the police who issued a wanted bulletin with a $1M reward.One week after the reward was offered Benschop received a telephone call from a relative of the wanted man,Niklas Hjalmarsson Jersey, telling him that Rowe was fearful for his life, since it appeared that “the police wanted to kill him.”Benschop advised the relative to have Rowe contact him directly,Darcy Kuemper Jersey, which he subsequently did the following morning.“I got a call from someone who identified himself as ‘Cobra’ and my advice to him was to let me take him in so that his life could be spared,” Benschop recalled.Benschop said that while Rowe was reluctant to be placed in the hands of the police,Pavol Demitra Jersey, fearing torture or being killed, he was subsequently convinced that his “surrender” would be done with the full involvement of the media.Several media houses, including this newspaper were contacted, and a rendezvous was arranged for the corner of D’Urban Street and Louisa Row.As soon as members of the media turned up, the wanted man emerged from his hiding place and Benschop introduced him to the journalists.After ‘Cobra’ was briefly interviewed by the media, Benschop made contact with operatives at the Brickdam Police Station, informing them that he was ready to hand the wanted man over to them.As usual the police took a while before they reacted and it had to take a call to the then Commissioner of Police Henry Greene from a senior journalist from this newspaper who was at the scene to activate the police.Within minutes of that call, a few ranks arrived and took the wanted man into their custody.Greene was reminded about the reward, but he indicated that he was not “dealing with Benschop, and promised to communicate with the journalist who had contacted him.A few days later, the then commissioner informed that he was awaiting a report from the Crime Chief Seelall Persaud with respect to the circumstances surrounding Cobra’s arrest before a decision could be taken on whether to pay the reward or not.Pressed further by this newspaper, the Commissioner raised the issue with the Crime Chief who informed that the question of the reward did not exist since Rowe had surrendered and it was not a case of anyone providing information that led to his capture.However, Benschop has flatly challenged that position.“Cobra never wanted to surrender. I am the one who encouraged him to do so….If indeed Cobra was armed and dangerous as the police claimed, he would not have given up without a fight. What I did saved his life and maybe those of some policemen,Jon Casey Jersey,” Benschop retorted.“The police issued a notice to pay the money to anyone who could provide information leading to Cobra’s capture. I think in good faith, the Guyana Police Force should hand over the money. We cannot have an institution of the state reneging on its agreement with the people, because there will be no further cooperation,Antoine Roussel Jersey,” Benschop stated.Recently, a number of persons on the social network,Jaden Schwartz Jersey, Facebook,Jacob Trouba Team North America Jersey, advised that the state should be sued if they refused to pay the reward.Rowe, now 20 years old is still on remand facing murder charges.Controversy has always surrounded the payment of reward for the capture or elimination of wanted men.  In 2008,Ryan Reaves Jersey, then President Bharrat Jagdeo announced that the $50M reward for the killing of Rondell “Fine Man” Rawlins went toward the “general well being of all of the members of the Joint Services.”Following his death at the hands of the Joint Services, it was announced that the entity would receive the money and as such the National Assembly approved the sum of $50M for the payment of the reward.Twenty million of that money went to the Guyana Police Force whilst another $20M was handed over to the Guyana Defence Force. Another $10M was entrusted to the Defence Board for disbursement.It is believed that this $10M would have been paid to the informant who provided information which led to the slaying of ‘Fine Man’ and his cohort Jermaine ‘Skinny’ Charles for whom a $2M -and later upgraded to $10M – reward was announced.To date, it is unclear whether this money was paid to the informant.And controversy also surrounded the reward that was announced for the capture or killing of Neil Bovell.On December 27, 2006, the three-year manhunt for Bovell ended when he was gunned down by the police at Inner Stanleytown, West Bank Demerara.The police had received a call from someone in the area that Bovell was at his father’s house.That informant had reportedly declined to accept the money, advising instead that it should be given to the ranks who had risked their lives to capture Bovell.However, on several occasions the ranks had complained that they had not received a single cent.
