The unidentified man that was found dead on the parapet in front of the National Park, on Carifesta Avenue, last Sunday, has been identified as 38-year-old Jules Waaldijk of Second Street, Turkeyen, East Coast of Demerara.
According to relatives, Waaldijk was last seen on the evening of Friday 5th November, on Seaforth Street, Campbellville.
Kaieteur News understands that the man was walking along Carifesta Avenue “swaying in a drunken fashion” before he stopped and appeared to be taking a rest along the side of the road, lying down.
A public-spirited citizen contacted this news paper and expressed his concerns about the man’s condition.
When Kaieteur News arrived on the scene the Police were conducting their investigations and preparing to send the man to the Georgetown Public Hospital for an official pronouncment.
A relative of the deceased told this newspaper that they made efforts in finding Waaldijk but these all proved futile. It was through a Kaieteur News article (and photograph) that they learnt of their relative’s demise.
This newspaper understands that the body of Jules Waaldijk is presently at Lyken Funeral Home.
