Infant dies after great-grandmother feeds her ‘milk tea’

The Guyana Police Force is currently inquiring into the death of six-day-old Sarah Verapen of Letter Kenny Village, Corentyne, Berbice, who reportedly died on Friday at around 19:45h, shortly after her great-grandmother had fed her ‘milk tea’.
Megnath Verapen, the baby’s father, explained that his daughter had started to vomit while her great-grandmother was feeding her. She was, as such, rushed to the Port Mourant Public Hospital, where she was examined by a doctor and pronounced dead.
A post-mortem is expected to be performed on the baby on Monday. Police investigations are continuing.
