Corentyne family calling for justice after employer beats worker

A Corentyne, Berbice family is calling for justice after the employer of 30-year-old Nandkumar Heeram allegedly beat him following a misunderstanding.
The injured man, also known as “Ravi”, of Middle Walk, Friendship Village, Region Six (East Berbice-Corentyne) was beaten at about 19:30h on Saturday evening.
According to the injured man’s sister, she received a telephone call indicating that

something had hit her brother.
Guyana Times was told that Heeram was called by his employer following a dispute and as he approached, he was assaulted with a piece of wood.
In an attempt to evade the incoming blow, he spun around and was hit behind the head. Additionally, he was hit to the nose.
His sister said when she arrived at the hospital and tried to speak to her brother, he was unable to respond. She also said that at that time, he was bleeding profusely from his nose.
A report was made to the Police and the suspect was arrested. However, the employer was subsequently released.
However, on Monday when the father of three was approached by the media, he acknowledged that some time ago there was a misunderstanding between himself and his employer.
Efforts to contact the Divisional Commander for a comment on the matter proved futile.
