Dead: Bryan Dickson
revealed that he was manually strangled. The 43-year-old gold miner was found dead in his apartment last Thursday by relatives. Dickson, also known as ‘Son Son’ and ‘Peck’, was found gagged and lying on his back in his bedroom.
The post mortem was done by government pathologist Dr. Nehaul Singh. Singh in his examination also found that Dickson received blunt trauma to the head and multiple puncture wounds about the body.
Meanwhile police sources yesterday said that no one has been arrested in connection with the murder. According to the source, they are still trying to ascertain a motive.
Relatives had said that nothing was stolen from the apartment, making it apparent that Dickson might have known his attacker. One female relative said she did not believe that Dickson was keeping any substantial amount of money at home. Kaieteur News was told that Dickson, the father of two teenage boys, had returned to Georgetown last November after he was involved in an accident.
Two neighbours, including an elderly woman, who lived in the upper flat of the apartment where Dickson’s body was found, were questioned. However, neither of them recalled hearing or seeing anything amiss.
