The woman who was found dead in an Eccles, East Bank Demerara trench last Saturday has been identified as Angela Andrea Sooknanan. The woman’s body was identified at around 15:00 hrs this afternoon by her father, Romel Sooknanan, a 76-year-old pensioner from Thomas Street Kitty, Georgetown.
Information received from the father indicates that Angela was of unsound mind and was a patient of Dr Harry. She last visited him on Thursday, August 8, 2024, where she was seen, examined, and treated for her illness.
On Friday, August 9, 2024, she asked her mother, Charlotte Sooknanan, for money to go to Diamond. Her body was found a day later in trench at Eccles industrial site at about 15:00hrs yesterday.
Cops were alerted to the body via a 911 hotline call.
Police ranks visited the location where they found the partly decomposed body of a female, believed to be of Mixed ancestry and between the ages of 30 and 40, floating face-down in a trench alongside the Eccles dumpsite road.
The body was fished out and examined by the CSI rank, and what appeared to be blood and water were flowing from the nostrils.
The face was swollen, and the body was cladded in long black tights and a grey armless top with one-side slippers. There was no mark of violence seen on the body.
