Police say man beaten to death by beachgoers at Bartica

Three persons inclusive of a female are in police custody assisting with the murder investigation of a male who goes by the alias ‘Radika’ which occurred between 04:00-08:00hrs this morning, on Third Avenue Beach, Bartica.

Investigations, police say, revealed that because the victim refused to remove from the beach as demanded by the suspects who were alleged to have been involved in a “threesome act”, he was given a severe beating.

A public-spirited citizen having witnessed the incident, summoned the police who responded promptly, arrested the suspects and escorted the victim who was in an unconscious state, to the Bartica Public Hospital where he succumbed whilst receiving treatment.

The body of  ‘Radika’  whose address and correct name are yet to be ascertained, is at the Hospital’s Mortuary awaiting a post-mortem examination.
