KALLIECHARAN’S variety store has honoured the Point Fortin fire officers that responded to a fire at one of its buildings in October.
On October 5, an arsonist set fire to Fashion TT clothing store at Market Street, Point Fortin, which is just next to Maya’s. Only the latter was able to be saved after hours of work by the fire officials but it too suffered damage. The owner, Vishnu Kalliecharan, approximated the losses at $1 million.
