Dead: Muneshwar Bisnauth
Shortly after, the fisherman’s lifeless body was discovered lying in the yard, with a gaping wound to the head.
Bisnauth’s father-in-law has confessed to murder. The man reportedly confessed to killing the fisherman during an interrogation by detectives on Monday evening. The suspect allegedly told Police that he dealt one blow to the man’s head with a piece of wood during an argument.
He also confessed to instructing his relatives to “wash down” the blood before they called the dead man’s relatives. Initially, they told Police that the man had fallen and hit his head.
Based on that information, the Police said the file has been forwarded for legal advice and charges are expected as soon as the post-mortem examination (PME) is performed. The PME is expected to be performed today.
