Berbice joiner was strangled, nephew rearrested

Aug 23, 2012 News

A joiner whose body was discovered Tuesday in his Kingston, Berbice home, was strangled, a post mortem examination found yesterday.
A nephew who lived with the 50-year-old victim Kumar Singh called ‘Brother’, who was detained Tuesday and later released, was yesterday rearrested after the findings.
Kumar’s body was discovered in his home, by the nephew, with blood oozing from the nose and scratches on the back.
His nephew, Radhakrishna Singh, 35, a fisherman, had said that he returned home from a fishing trip around 05:00hrs Tuesday and noticed the fence to the Yacoob Street, Kingston home broken. He said that he also found the door to his uncle’s apartment broken. He claimed that he called and got no response and went into the apartment where he saw the joiner lying on the floor. His uncle appeared to be dead.
The fisherman said that he immediately went to the Springlands Police Station and reported the matter.
Police initially had suspected foul play. They released the nephew but detained him shortly after the post mortem.
Both Singhs were said to be living alone in their separate apartments.
