Body which was found hanging identified by relatives

Jan 11, 2011 News

Relatives of the man who was found hanging on Saturday from a length of pink rope in an incomplete building on Hadfield Street, Georgetown, said that the victim was 50-year- old Edwin Ramlogan.
His sister and a brother-in-law visited Lyken Funeral Home at approximately 17:00 hrs yesterday and identified the body.
Ramlogan, prior to his passing, was hospitalised at the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC) after complaining about feeling well.
When family members showed up at the hospital last Friday to visit him they were told by nurses that Ramlogan had already been discharged.
Several attempts by family members to locate him proved futile.
His family is speculating that as a result of his ailment, he became frustrated and decided to take his own life. The post mortem examination is expected to be conducted tomorrow.
At around noon on Saturday last, three persons who were on their way to a fishing trip observed something looking like a “stuff doll” but upon closer observation found it to be a human body.
“We were walking and all I saw was something in the building looking like a stuff doll, but when I look closer I found out it was a person; and I just call out to everybody and someone then call the police,” said Latoya George who was one of the persons that found the corpse.
