Relatives of Troy Ryan Livan, the 11-year-old Bounty Hall, Essequibo resident who died hours after he was hit in the head with a cricket bat, are moving to have his body exhumed for the purpose of conducting a second autopsy.
The post mortem examination conducted shortly after the Primary School student died on May 16, revealed the cause of death as being diabetes.
His family members are however, dissatisfied with these results, maintaining that apart from the customary cold and fever, Livan did not have any illnesses.
According to them, shortly before the lad succumbed, he told relatives and friends that he was attacked and beaten about the head, neck, and belly, by three male students while at school.
“He even get the marks to prove it. Big black and blue on he head and so. I don’t believe that he died of diabetes. The beating that he got and the fact that he just died shortly after that beating, proves to me that is them knock to he head killed him,” the dead child’s aunt, Judy Livan said.
The woman explained that she and her sisters, including Troy’s mother are working to have a foreign Pathologist come in and conduct a proper autopsy.
Should these results determine the cause of death as being anything besides diabetes, the Livan family said that they are prepared to ensure that strict actions are taken against the guilty parties.
