Sunday, by ranks of ‘B’ Division, has revealed that the trio died from shock and haemorrhage, with Ramnarine ‘Andrew’ Jagmohan and Kelvin ‘Kelly’ Shivgobin receiving multiple gunshot wounds and the third, Sewchand Seelall, a single gunshot injury.
The autopsies were conducted by Government Pathologist Dr. Vivekanand Bridgemohan at the Port Mourant Hospital yesterday morning.
On Sunday, just around 15:30 hrs, ranks lead by Senior Superintendent Wayne DeHearte, who is currently in charge of No.2 Sub-division (Borlam-Siparuta) made their way to the backlands of Mibicuri South (near the bridge connecting Mibicuri and Johanna) after receiving information that there were three strange persons lurking in the said location.
The ranks, as they approached the location were reportedly met with a hail of gunfire from the three men. Gunfire was returned, and the exchange carried on for a little over five minutes.
When the shooting ceased, the bloodied bodies of the three men were reportedly found in the swampy area. Four weapons were also discovered lying beside the men, along with three haversacks.
While their bodies were being transported out, residents had already gathered at the bridge to catch a glimpse of the individuals who were terrorising residents in Black Bush Polder and on the Corentyne. The bodies were taken to the Port Mourant Hospital for official pronouncement of death.

After his release, he lived in Bush Lot Village, but moved to Black Bush Polder after the Samaroo brothers were killed. Police sources told Kaieteur News that he may have a part of the gang that murdered the brothers. Jagmohan served time in prison for the murder of Hampshire businessman Devendra ‘Dave’ Deodat, he was killed during a robbery at his home in October 2013.
