Decomposed body fished out of creek

The decomposed body of an Amerindian male was fished out of the Kurupung Creek in the Cuyuni-Mazaruni area of Region Seven at about14:30h on Thursday.
Clad in a yellow shirt and dark coloured pants, the body appears to be that of someone who had been in his late twenties. However, his identity has not as yet been established.
Guyana Times understands that a group of persons travelling in a boat noticed the body and reported its presence to Police, who visited the scene and retrieved the body from the river.
Inspections have revealed that the body might have been in the creek for at least four days; however, no missing persons report matching the man’s description has been lodged.
Police have since begun investigating the discovery of the body and the circumstances attending the man’s demise.
