Ali was discovered by his mother who went to check on him after calls to his mobile phone went unanswered.

Information reaching Guyana Times revealed that the dead man might have been murdered, since the Police have removed two knives, a hammer and several other items suspected to be the murder weapons. The hammer and the knives had what appeared to be blood stains. The Police also removed several cigarettes, which according to relatives, is a surprise since the dead man did not smoke.

A senior Police rank told this newspaper that the results of a post mortem examination will be the basis for their investigations.

The Police have questioned several persons including his neighbours. According to neighbours, Ali lived alone and was last seen on Sunday evening in his yard.

Crime Chief Wendell Blanhum on Monday said based on investigations it is believed that the perpetrator(s) attempted to burn the house following the murder.

He said several burnt electrical cords were found near the man’s body.

At the home of the dead man, his mother, Bibi Hamid was inconsolable as she sat in a hammock.

She explained that she lives in Berbice, Region Six, but suspected that something was wrong with her son since she had called him several times but her calls went unanswered.

The grieving mother said she subsequently called and asked her son’s neighbours to go check on him but they too were unable to reach Ali.

She said she travelled to her son’s home and found the door ajar. Her worst fear was confirmed when she went in and found her son’s body with several marks about his body.

Hamid stated that her son visited her in Berbice on Friday last and left on Saturday to return to ECD. The aggrieved mother is now left with questions about her son’s death.

The house was also partially ransacked but Guyana Times was unable to confirm if anything was taken. Ali reportedly moved to the area a few months ago and leaves to mourn his parents and sisters.

She had last seen him on Saturday. “I called his phone this morning and it (was) ringing out. I called the neighbors and them say them come over and call and they not hearing nothing. My mind say, ‘Let me come at the house and see what happen’. My son must tell me where he going if he left to go anywhere.” Hamid related that when she pushed the bedroom door it was to discover her son’s body. Other onlookers strongly ruled out suicide, but mentioned that Ali had no known enemies. They noted that the youth would attend Masjid regularly. “(I don’t) believe that boy gun do nothing to (him) self because he nah got no problem, no family nah come in he way or nobody,” one relative said. One neighbor said he last saw Ali on Sunday burning refuse near to his row of farm beds in his yard. “Is till when I hear the mother hollering I know something wrong.” He said, adding that he noticed no unusual activity around the house on Sunday night.

This could be the result of young criminals who doesn't belong to jail like the young pardoned rapist that went back to jail for the same crime. He will be freed again on the second phase of Granger's independence gesture. This will encourage young people to commit crimes and believe they will be forgiven by Granger.
