Two seamen are still missing three weeks after a fuel tanker capsized in the Corentyne River and two survivors are telling different tales of what transpired.
Missing are captain of the boat Gianan Rickiram and crew member Patrick Constantine.
Anthony Sookdeo, who was aboard the vessel and is the son of Rickiram, believes the two were trapped under the boat, which is still overturned at sea. The other survivor, Leon Augustus Persaud, of Brickery, whose first day on the job ended tragically, said that the boat had capsized due to large crashing waves that hit the boat repeatedly.
The Guyana-registered vessel, The Swift Dolphin, had capsized at the mouth of the Corentyne River at approximately 1:45am,
