The parents of six-year-old Antonio George, and three-year-old Joshua George who died last week in a fire that raged at the Drop-In Centre on Hadfield Street, have since been granted access to their sons’ remains and death certificates.
This comes one day after Sonia and Leon George accused the Child Care and Protection Agency (CCPA) of restricting access to their children’s remains and medical records.
On Friday, the Georges told Stabroek News that they had made a request to view the bodies of their dead children, and for copies of their death certificates as well as the medical certificates of the remaining children. How-ever, the parents said that instead of acceding to their request, which they set as a pre-requisite for the funeral to be held, CCPA officials were pushing ahead with funeral arrangements.
