The family of Melissa Arokium and her eight-year-old son, Anthony Arokium, who were murdered at their residence in Rose Hall Town, Corentyne are dissatisfied with the way in which investigators are handling the probe as the police are yet to file charges against any suspect.
Melissa Arokium, also known as Lisa, 30, who operated a shop at her residence at Lot 189 Mangrove Street, Reef, Rose Hall, Corentyne, and Anthony Arokium, 8, a pupil at the Port Mourant Primary School were found dead between 1 pm – 2 pm on August, 23, by Melissa’s younger brother.
Based on photographs that were circulated online of the scene, Melissa was found face down in a pool of blood in her living room with major injuries to her neck, while her son was found on his bed with injuries to his head and neck along with cuts on his face.
