Partially-decomposed bodies still unidentified

The two bodies that were found at the Rambarran Wharf, New Hope, on the East Bank of Demerara (ECD) and at Tarla Dam, Meten-Meer-Zorg, West Coast Demerara (WCD), are yet to be identified.
Just about a week ago, residents of Tarla Dam discovered the partially decomposed body of a man with a black plastic bag over his head in a canal.
The body was clad in a burgundy t-shirt, long white track pants and a pair of black socks. It is believed that the now-deceased man had been around 40 years of age and was of East Indian descent.
Police were called to the scene, and an investigation was launched.
However, Regional Commander Simon McBean confirmed that the man’s body has not been identified.
Meanwhile, two days ago, the Police were summoned after the partly-decomposed body of another unidentified man was found at Rambarran Wharf.
The discovery was made by passers-by in the area.
According to Police, the now-deceased man was of African descent, and was clad in a pair of jeans.
Police have since described the man as medium built and sporting short dreadlocks.
There were no visible marks of violence on the man’s body, which was taken to the Lyken Funeral Home.
When Guyana Times contacted Regional Commander Simon Kurleigh on Friday, he confirmed that the body has not been identified.
