The man was identified as Rameshwaram Willie, commonly known as ‘Mice’, a taxi driver of 131 Logwood Enmore, ECD.
Kaieteur News understands that the man’s body was found around 8:00hrs by passersby who were heading to a supermarket. Willie’s body was found face down in a drain.
Relatives of the deceased disclosed that they saw a video footage of Willie stumbling and falling into the drain. They said too that he was an alcoholic who used to return to his home late at night.
