The family of Sunil Mangra, the Uitvlugt Estate labourer whose body was discovered at the Stewartville seashore, West Coast Demerara (WCD) last Monday, believes that he was murdered and is calling for a thorough investigation by police after what it has described as a lackluster approach so far.
The lifeless body of 23-year-old Mangra, a resident of Para Field, Leonora, WCD, was discovered lying at the seashore around 6.30am last Monday by a pump attendant.
Divisional Commander Richie Das told this newspaper last week that an autopsy revealed that Mangra died of drowning and as a result of blunt trauma to his head. After the discovery of the man’s body, the police had said there were no visible marks of violence.
