Crime Chief Wendell Blanhum yesterday said that DNA testing has confirmed that skeletal remains found at Kuru Kuru Backdam are those of Answar Stoll.
On the 13th of July 2022 at about 20:35 hrs, a team of Forensic investigators from the Criminal Investigations Department Crime Laboratory was dispatched to an area in the Kuru Kururu Backdam where human skeletal remains believed to be of Stoll were recovered.
The bones were later examined by a Pathologist and confirmed to be those of a male above the age of 35 years old. The police said that the pathologist found evidence of a 14 cm-long incised wound extending from the frontal bone to the parietal bone of the skull. This injury was ruled as the cause of death.
These samples were tested and the results confirmed the remains to be those of Stoll.
It is suspected that Stoll, called ‘Red Man,’ 46, of Dadrima Savannah, Kuru Kururu, Linden/Soesdyke Highway, was murdered sometime between November 15 and November 16, 2020 at his home.
