A Berbice fisherman was on Thursday found dead at the Kumaka Waterfront, North West District, with what appeared to be marks of violence on his face and neck, several days after he was reported missing by his boat’s captain.
As a result, the Guyana Police Force (GPF) yesterday reported that three fellow crew members of Mohamed Rai, also known as “Reyaz”, 33, of Lot 6 Sheet Anchor Village, East Canje Berbice, are among the five persons now in custody for questioning about his death. The other two persons in custody are two female Venezuelans, with whom he was reportedly last seen.
