Kaieteur News – Tears flowed freely on Sunday as relatives, close friends and acquaintances of the slain DJ, Brian Pitam, popularly known as ‘DJ Viper’ was laid to rest.
His body was viewed at his home at Good Hope East Coast Demerara (ECD), and also at his father’s home in Cane Grove, ECD, before being taken to its final resting place at the Cane Grove Cemetery.
Pitam was described as a humble, friendly, jovial and entertaining individual, who made an impact on the lives of many with whom he interacted.
He leaves to mourn his wife, Alia Pitam and his two young children, a two-year-old-boy and an eight month old baby girl.
Pitam was last Sunday brutally killed allegedly by three men while trying to defend his father-in-law from a violent attack at Laluni Village, Linden Soesdyke Highway.
