A family is now mourning the loss of their son after he suffocated on a thumbtack at his school on October 29, 2024.
The deceased, five-year-old Mekhi Rodrigues, was a student of Little Angels Primary School. Speaking with the Sunday Stabroek, Mekhi’s grandfather, Grafton Rampaul, recounted that he, accompanied by two detectives and his father-in-law, went to the school after the incident, where they reviewed over two hours of footage depicting his grandchild’s final moments.
