Hundreds marched the streets earlier today in the Syrian hometown of 25-year-old Roudi Shmaly to offer prayers for someone whom they say was well-loved in his country.

The Syrian businessman was killed during an armed robbery on Monday.

Meanwhile in Antigua, a candlelight vigil was held earlier tonight at his chicken hub on DeSouza road.

A 16 year old has been remanded for the death of the well loved Syrian.
