Decomposed body of pensioner found in home

Police have found the body of 73-year-old Wilma Patricia Wilkie, a female pensioner, in a state of decomposition at her home on Friday, reports have revealed.
Guyana Times understands that neighbours of the woman, who resided at Lot 351 Cummings Street Georgetown, awoke on Friday morning to a strong stench emanating from her home, and they immediately informed the Police. Upon arrival, the Police found the woman’s body in an advanced state of decomposition in her home.
Regional Commander Simon McBean has said an investigation into the discovery has been launched.
Only three days ago, the decomposed body of a pensioner was found in his home at Linden, Region 10 (Upper Demerara-Berbice).
That man has been identified as 73-year-old Edwin Tudor of Burjack, Wismar, Linden.
Tudor, who had lived alone, had visited his sister a day before his body was found. He had complained of feeling unwell, and had subsequently left his sister’s residence and had returned home.
The man’s neighbour had said that, upon passing his home, she was greeted by a foul stench, and upon looking inside his house, she had observed the man lying on his bed in a motionless and decomposed state. She had immediately contacted his family members.
The body was examined, but due to the state of decomposition, no marks of violence could have been detected. (G9)
