UP to late last evening, police were investigating the circumstances surrounding the fatal stabbing of an unidentified man by his colleague, at the junction of Durban and Camp Streets, Georgetown at approximately 02:30 hours on November 28, 2014 (yesterday morning).

According to sources, the deceased was not immediately identifiable, even as the name of the suspect was handed over to the police and the suspect was himself in custody of the police.

Persons familiar with both men have said that the two are related and that they are both of unsound mind. The police issued a press release yesterday to inform that they were investigating the circumstances surrounding the man’s death.

Initial investigations by the police have found that the victim and his alleged relative had been involved in an argument during which he was stabbed to his abdomen. He was rushed to the Georgetown Public Hospital, but was pronounced dead on arrival.
His body was later transported to the Lyken Funeral Parlour, where the police are looking to have a post-mortem conducted on Monday to determine his cause of death.

The deceased is of African descent and appears to be in his early twenties. He is dark in complexion, and is about 5’7” in height, with braided hair, according to the police in their release.
