Fiesal-found-dead.
Inshan
Ally, whose body
was found at Goed
Fortuin, West Bank
Demerara on Friday died
as a result of
asphyxiation due to
drowning and blunt
cranial trauma, an
autopsy yesterday
revealed.
One of two suspects
detained in connection
with the death, has been
released from police
custody.
The body of Ally, 57,
also known as ‘Mamu’
who had no fixed place of
abode was found in a canal
in the backdam around 6.45
am. It was in a
decomposing state.
Vidyawattee Goberdhan,
a resident of the
community told Stabroek
News recently that the
man’s body seemed to
have marks of violence and
she was able to identify
him by his beard.
Ally was known to spend
his days doing chores for
villagers and at nights,
slept at the koker. The
arrested suspects had been
identified by villagers as
the persons who allegedly
sodomised Ally before
killing him and dumping
his body.
According to Goberdhan,
the dead man has no family
in the area and she was a
friend to him. She
added that he would
usually spend the day at
her home helping her with
various chores around the
house. She added
that he was “a nice
person who never bothered
anybody.”
Goberdhan said she last
saw Ally last Wednesday
around 7.30 pm. When he
did not show up at her
home as usual, she queried
about his whereabouts but
no one had seen him. When
she heard about the body
being found, she had an
uneasy feeling and
suspected that it might
have been Ally’s.
Goberdhan said that a
villager had informed her
that on Wednesday night he
had intervened on Ally’s
behalf to prevent two men
from beating him. He was
able to stop the men but
did not know what happened
after that.
