E’bo man found floating in canal

Oct 22, 2015 News

An Aberdeen family, whose relative Mahesh Narine  a/k “Big” 30, a rice farmer whose decomposed body was  discovered floating in a trench in the back dam early Wednesday morning, is making preparations for his funeral.
The partially decomposed body of Mahesh Narine,  formerly of Aberdeen Back dam, along with his pair of slippers and a bag containing cow mould was discovered in a trench, in the Aberdeen back dam.
From all appearances, Narine’s body bore no marks of violence and it appeared that he drowned after he experienced a seizure.
Surita Narine, the sister of the deceased, said that she last saw her brother some time after noon, Tuesday, moments after he ventured into the Aberdeen back dam to pick up cow dung which he usually sells to people in the Village.
Narine explained that it was usual for her brother to stay away from home for long periods since he is a known alcoholic, but after he failed to return home Tuesday night, her family became worried and braced themselves for the worst.
Narine further explained that early Tuesday, a rice farmer who was making his usual checks in the back dam saw the body floating in the trench and alerted the family.
The police, Narine said, were similarly informed. They visited the scene and examined the body before transporting it to the Suddie funeral parlor to await a post mortem examination.
Mahesh Narine once served in the Guyana Defence Force. He was not married and he had no children. Narine lived in a house in front of his mother, at Aberdeen back dam. (Yannason Duncan)
