-residents demand probe
Saying she was demon possessed, a pastor and several church members on Sunday “treated” a 14-year-old girl for hours by pounding her stomach until she bled. The teen died hours later at the West Demerara Regional Hospital.
Sangeeta Persaud called ‘Sheena’ had celebrated her birthday a few days ago, angry residents who gathered at her Canal Number Two, West Bank Demerara home yesterday, recalled. They demanded an investigation into her death saying the police have shown little interest. An autopsy is scheduled for today.
