The police are said to be looking for the body of a 25-year-old man, who was reportedly shot dead
during a suspected pirate attack Tuesday night.
Kaieteur News understands that after being shot, Shavy Allicock, of Lot 24 James Street, Albouystown fell into the river in the vicinity of Muneshwer’s wharf.
Yesterday, his mother, Yvonne Sooklall, said that her son was not shot but rather drowned.
She said that her son left home to go out and a little after 20:00 hrs, she was informed that he drowned.
In 2010, the young man’s father, Leonard Allicock was held for the 2009 murder of Wendell Tappin, who was stabbed and chopped about the body over a cell phone battery. The elder Allicock was later acquitted.
