Father gets station bail as Police continue probe into son’s murder
Dead: Nakema Dimitri Deonauth
As investigations continue into the alleged murder of 39-year-old Nakema Dimitri Deonauth, his father, who was taken into custody for questioning, was on Thursday released on station bail.
Crime Chief Wendell Blanhum, when contacted, reported that the suspect was granted bail in a substantial amount and was required to visit the detectives on Friday. He nevertheless stated that investigations are continuing.
The lifeless body of Deonauth was found in his Regent and Cummings Streets, Georgetown apartment with several wounds on his body on Monday.
It was reported that the body was discovered by his father, who immediately raised an alarm. The Police were contacted and an investigation was launched. A post-mortem performed by Dr Nehaul Singh showed that he suffered from a brain hemorrhage, which was caused by blunt trauma to the head.
At the time of the discovery, there was also a mark around his neck which suggested that he might have been strangled.
Deonauth reportedly lived on the top floor of the three-storey building, which also has an electronics store on the ground floor and a storage facility on the second. He was last seen leaving his uncle’s business in the company of his father.
