Dead: Kevin Sackichand

AUTO electrician, Kevin Sackichand, 21 years, of Lot 214 De Willem, West Coast Demerara, who succumbed following an accident at Zeeburg Public Road, also on the West Coast Demerara, on Friday night will be laid to rest next week Sunday following a post-mortem.

Father of the deceased, Rampersaud Sackichand, called “Papso”, told the Guyana Chronicle that on Friday afternoon his son returned home from work at about 18:30hrs and had dinner.

The grieving man explained that prior to his eldest son’s arrival at home his daughter, Melissa had also returned home in her seven-month old Toyota Honda Fit and parked it outside their residence.

She had left the key in the house and unknowingly Kevin took the key and left in the vehicle for an unknown destination with a cousin, Udesh Kissoon, 24 years, who is hospitalised nursing severe injuries to his head and body.

The elder Sackichand said he was on his way home at about 22:30hrs when he received at call informing him that his son was involved in an accident and was at Leonora Cottage Hospital. When he went there he saw his son being treated while being in an unconscious condition.

Kevin was later transferred to the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation where he succumbed at about 04:00hrs Saturday morning without regaining consciousness.

He reported that his son had slammed head-on into a parked vehicle and then crashed into a tree at Zeeburg Public Road.

Kevin was an unlicensed driver and the vehicle was totalled in the crash.
