The post-mortem examination which was done on the body of the man who was found buried in a shallow grave in the backlands of Crabwood Creek, Upper Corentyne on Tuesday revealed that he died as a result of an incised wound to his head and neck and gunshot injuries to his neck. Ghowcharran Persaud, 37, of Grant 1805 Crabwood Creek, Upper Corentyne reportedly went on a fishing trip with two friends identified as ‘Ameer’ and ‘Bharrat’ on Thursday last. Relatives had said that the men were expected to return on Saturday but Persaud did not.
The post-mortem examination which revealed Persaud’s cause of death was done on Friday at Memorial Gardens, Georgetown by government pathologist Dr. Nehaul Singh. Persaud’s brother, Pravesh Persaud had told Stabroek News that last week Thursday morning his brother visited his house where he told him that he would be heading to the area to fish. “Any where he a go he does come tell me who he a go with and he say them a go catch fish and he seh he a go with Ameer. He pack up he bag and Ameer come and collect he.”
