Two persons including the adopted son of 76-year-old retired police officer Cyril Persaud, whose decomposed body was found floating in a canal at D’Urban Backlands on Sunday have been detained for questioning in connection with his murder.
Stabroek News was reliably informed that the 35-year-old man, who is a mechanic and his mother, a 53-year-old was taken into custody sometime on Monday.
They were still being questioned up to last evening.
