The relatives of the two Corentyne fishermen who have been missing since a piracy attack on their boat last October are calling on the authorities to conduct DNA testing on the skeletal remains found at the West Coast Berbice foreshore Friday last to determine if there is a match.
In October, 2019, four Corentyne fishermen were dumped overboard in the West Coast Berbice area after a piracy attack on the high seas.
The body of Lamar Petrie, 20, of Lot 9 Miss Phoebe, Port Mourant was discovered along Good Faith, Mahaicony, while the body of Kawal Kissoon, also known as ‘Ajai,’ 36, of Lot 233 Letter Kenny, Corentyne, was discovered on the foreshore of the Abary River.
