The search for a West Bank Berbice, Region Five (Mahaica-Berbice) fisherman who disappeared on April 8, while sailing on the Atlantic Ocean has been called off.
That is according to the missing fisherman’s wife Rebecca Inchanally.
On April 8, Daniel Inchanally 32, of Rosignol and Vishal Parmanand 18, of D’Edward West Bank Berbice reportedly left home to go to Crabwood Creek, Corentyne, Region Six (East Berbice-Corentyne) on April 8, to pick up the boat and sail it back to their village.
They left Crabwood Creek, and were expected to sail along Guyana’s Atlantic Coast to the estuary of the Berbice River, where they were to moor the boat at the Three-Door landing site at D’Edward village.
However, they never arrived. Instead, the boat was discovered the following day along the Tain foreshore by a fisherman. At the time, a bag containing the teenager’s belongings, including his cellular phone, was in the boat, and the 60hp engine was still on the vessel.
On April 18, the partly decomposed body of Parmanand was discovered by two fishermen along the eastern beach of the Atlantic, in the vicinity of Borlam, East Coast Berbice.
According to the mother of two, family members continued their search for Inchanally but called it off about a week after the teen’s body was found.
