Man, 78, found strangled in Crabwood Creek home

Mar 23, 2016 News

The body of a 78-year-old man, with wounds to the head and plastic handcuffs wrapped tightly around the throat, was found at Crabwood Creek, Berbice at around 21.30 hrs last night. The victim’s body bore two indentations to the face.
Police say the victim, Khublall Gomes, was found lying in his hammock in the bottom flat of his two-storey home. The front door to the upper flat appeared to have been forced open and the premises ransacked.
A male relative reportedly made the grisly discovery when he was passing Gomes’ home and observed that the front gate was open. After calling for Gomes and getting no response, the relative summoned neighbours. They then went into the yard and discovered Gomes’ body.
Kaieteur News understands that Gomes lived with a female companion, but that the woman has been in Suriname for the past two weeks.
Police were still at the scene at press time.
