POLICE in Regional Division Two say no foul play is suspected, at this stage, in the death of 12-year-old Samesh Singh of Golden Fleece Koker Dam, Essequibo Coast, whose body was discovered along the community’s foreshore early Friday morning.

In a release, the Guyana Police Force confirmed that the child was reported missing on Thursday, November 20, 2025, and was found around 08:00 hours the following day.

“No foul play is suspected as investigations continue,” the Police stated.

According to the release, a relative searching the area made the discovery. “A relative conducting checks along the Golden Fleece foreshore discovered the body lying face-down on the sand and immediately alerted the police,” the Force reported.

A senior detective led the response team to the scene, where the body was found about 150 feet northeast of the Golden Fleece koker. The child was clad in a cream-coloured boxer.

Singh was taken to the Suddie Public Hospital, where a doctor pronounced him dead. His body has since been moved to the hospital mortuary, where a post-mortem examination will be conducted.

Investigations are ongoing.
