The man has been identified as Jagnarine Narayan of Good Hope, ECD.
When contacted, the Commander of Regional Division 4C, Khali Pareshram, stated there were no marks of violence on the man’s body that suggested foul play was involved.
The man was taken to the Georgetown Public Hospital where he was pronounced dead on arrival. It was only two Fridays ago, a 58-year-old woman collapsed and died while attending the Vigilance Magistrate’s Court.
