Hospital technician confesses to filming “Lola Doll” during gunshot treatment

Police have detained a 20-year-old male orthopaedic technician in connection with the recording of social media personality Lolita Callender, also known as “Lola Doll”, while she was being treated for gunshot wounds at the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC).
According to the Guyana Police Force (GPF), the recording was made on September 6, 2025, while Callender was in the hospital’s Emergency Department. The suspect admitted to using his cell phone to film the victim but claimed that he did not post the video on Facebook. He told investigators that he only sent the recording to his ex-girlfriend via WhatsApp and later deleted it after noticing it circulating on social media.
The man’s cell phone has since been seized and handed over to the Cybercrimes Unit for analysis. Investigators are also seeking to locate the ex-girlfriend to whom the video was allegedly sent.
Police confirmed that the investigation is ongoing under the Cybercrime Act.
Meanwhile, GPHC has launched an internal probe into the breach. In a statement, the hospital said the technician was not rostered for duty at the time of the incident.
“The corporation takes this matter extremely seriously,” the hospital said, noting that photography and video recording in its facility are strictly prohibited unless authorised by management. It also issued an apology to the patient and her relatives, stressing that the dignity, privacy and well-being of patients remain its highest priority.
Callender, who is now showing signs of recovery after being shot multiple times outside her East Ruimveldt home on Saturday night, was rushed to the GPHC with gunshot wounds to the neck, face, arms, and right leg.
The 33-year-old mother of two was attacked just after 23:00h as she arrived home at Texas Square, East Ruimveldt.
According to Police, a lone gunman walked up to her parked vehicle and opened fire before fleeing on a waiting motorcycle. Neighbours recalled hearing a rapid burst of gunshots before finding the entertainer bleeding in the driver’s seat. She was rushed to hospital by relatives.
