The Guyana Police Force is likely to issue wanted bulletins for two men who are wanted in connection with the discovery of the decomposing remains of 25-year-old Akeem Culley, also called ‘Jamal’, of Meadowbrook Gardens, Georgetown.

He was found floating in a canal at GPL Reserve #1 in North Sophia, Georgetown on January 19. His body was positively identified by his girlfriend, Kandyce Duncan, after a neighbour informed her that a body was floating in the trench some 100 yards away from her home.

Crime Chief, Senior Superintendent Wendell Blanhum told the Guyana Chronicle that the police have the names of the suspects and efforts are being made to locate and bring them in for questioning.

The Crime Chief expressed confidence that the arm of the law will catch up with the men given the amount of intelligence work the police have been putting in recently and the results achieved.

In December of last year, the father of two was taken from his home at gunpoint by men who reportedly accused him for the theft of a motorcycle.

According to initial information, Culley who worked in the interior was at his home which he shared with his fiancée when the gunmen used a neighbour as bait to lure the young couple to open their door.

According to the girlfriend, she was at her home with Culley on December 29 last when, at about 1:30 a.m., she heard a knock on her door.

“I ask is who and a man said, ‘Akeem! Come, ah wan tell yuh dis thing’.” She has a neighbour by the name of “Akeem”, so she thought it was him and opened the door. It was then that a masked man pushed a gun in her face and asked her for Culley.

She said Culley was standing by her bedroom door when three men entered the house, grabbed him and forced him out of the house. The men were in her yard, and she heard him cry “Ah!” just before two gunshots went off.
