A Guyanese body work repairs man was found dead with a single gunshot wound to his head on Thursday, in Venezuela.
The body was reportedly discovered lying on a Venezuela road when the man’s relatives traveled over to neighbouring Venezuela to identify his remains.
Baney Beete, who was believed to be murdered and his body doused with gasoline, was reportedly shot and killed on Thursday last.
His older sister auntie Dato, of Richmond Village, Essequibo Coast, said her brother left Guyana for Venezuela, almost twenty years ago.
She added that she had not seen her brother for a number of years. However, only six months ago her other siblings rekindled contact with him and he relayed to them he had intentions of visiting his family.
She said at the time her brother left Guyana, there was an influx of Essequibians venturing into the neighbouring country, in an effort to seek employment.
Auntie Dato added that a family friend notified her other sibling about the incident and efforts were made to travel to Venezuela to transport Beete’s remains to Guyana for burial.
She said that the initial plan had to be aborted since the body was discovered in an advanced state of decomposition.
The family had not reported the incident since they did not know who was responsible for killing their brother.
