Man found on Diamond road died from blunt trauma – autopsy

Dead: Nezaam Khan

Nezaam Khan, the 46-year-old man who succumbed on Saturday morning, hours after he was discovered lying in a pool of blood along the Diamond Public Road, died as a result of blunt trauma to the head, an autopsy said.

His mother, Martha Persaud yesterday confirmed the findings of the autopsy to Stabroek News and vented her frustration over the slow pace of the police investigation.

Several efforts made to contact the police yesterday for an update on the matter proved fruitless.

Persaud said while the autopsy confirmed that her son’s death was not natural, the family remains clueless as to how he met his demise. “I don’t know which way we will go now”, she said.
