The relatives of Vanessa Lewis-Sahadeo yesterday handed over a recording they made of the Regional Health Officer (RHO) Dr Vishalya Sharma to police in hopes that it will help them to find what happened to the now deceased woman’s phone.
Sharma can reportedly be heard in the recording telling an official at the New Amsterdam Hospital to place the now deceased woman’s phone into a drawer and that she would uplift same and deliver it to the family. However, after this was not done the family filed a police report at the New Amsterdam Police Station. Sharma has not been answering calls from Stabroek News.
Sahadeo’s uncle, Joseph Lewis, yesterday explained that the family was forced to hand over the recording after being informed that officials were claiming to police investigators that the phone was given to the dead woman’s relatives on the Friday that she was transferred from the hospital. “They said they give the phone to her sister on the Friday but that is not true,” the man declared.
