Pandemonium broke out at the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC) yesterday, as one of the eight suspects remanded to prison for the murder of Met-en-Meer Zorg grocer, Zulficar Namdar, was taken to the facility for medical assistance.
It is unclear why 30-year-old Delwayne Croft of Lot 589 Tuschen Housing Scheme, West Coast Demerara was taken to the institution, but sources say that he was vomiting blood, crying out for severe chest pain and complaining of blurred vision.
Croft was escorted in shackles and handcuffs to the hospital’s Outpatient Department by two prison officers. Both of his eyes were swollen shut and there were marks on his face.

He spent less than five minutes in the hospital before he was rushed back to the Camp Street Prison without any medication or an X-ray being done to determine the cause of his chest pain.
Croft was remanded to prison on September, 20, last for the murder of Namdar. The 25-year-old businessman was shot and killed after heavily-armed, masked gunmen invaded the family’s Lot 76 Third Street Meten-Meer-Zorg home on September 10.
As word spread that some of the suspects in the Meten- Meer- Zorg murder/robbery were being taken to the GPHC, relatives of the eight suspects crowded the facility.
“My son called me and told me that five of them (murder suspects) were crying out for pain and the prison officers told them to get ready to go to the hospital but only Croft was taken to the hospital for checkup.”
One relative told Kaieteur News.
When Croft left the Camp Street prison, the news reached the relatives of the murder accused and everyone, including the media, flocked the hospital’s Accident and Emergency Unit.
But Croft was instead taken to the health institution’s Outpatient Department which is located opposite the mortuary.
Upon receiving information that Croft was taken to the Outpatient Department, a large gathering assembled to get a glance of Croft. The two prison officers tried to shield his face and pushed him in the vehicle.
While being pushed and forced in the police van, the man shouted, “They beat me at Leonora Station. They beat me and I can’t see.”
“Look, Look, them hiding what they did. They beat him since two Mondays ago and now they bring him to the hospital. Look at his eyes. Look what they did. They throw water on his skin and shock him,” Croft’s sister, Denise, cried.
A pregnant Denise said that her brother told her that he was working when police officers showed up and arrested him. “He ain’t do nothing. He was collecting money from passengers because he was working on a speedboat when the police showed up and arrested him.”
She added that while her brother was at Leonora Police Station two Mondays ago, two police officers took him into a cane field and “beat’ him.
“They beat him and when they done they tell him to run but he refused and they put his head in a plastic bag and slap him up.”
Meanwhile, Ann Blair, the mother of Alan Dorsett who along with his wife, Cassindra Singh was remanded to prison for the same murder accuses the justice system of being corrupted.
“They say my daughter-in-law murder. How can she murder someone and run when she weigh over 250 pounds? She has a five-month-old baby and them putting her in jail. She is innocent,” the woman cried.
