The decomposed body of Dr. Charles Clarence Validen was discovered early yesterday morning by police at his Agriculture Road, Triumph, East Coast Demerara (ECD) home.
The 76-year-old Specialist Obstetrician/Gynaecologist was positively identified by his maid.
According to information received, the doctor’s maid arrived at the property yesterday to do her usual work but to her surprise, everything was as she left it on Wednesday last. The doctor’s room was still locked.
She called for him several times and after receiving no response, she decided to call the police, who arrived swiftly at the scene, at around 09:30 hrs. They broke the door to gain access to the bedroom.
Upon entering the room, they found the doctor’s decomposed body lying on the bed.
The maid revealed that she works at the doctor’s home every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. She claimed that he was okay on Monday last, but when she revisited the home on Wednesday, she found his bedroom door locked. After calling a few times, she left, given that the doctor had requested that she not wake him whenever he worked late.
Kaieteur News understands that the doctor lived alone. His wife and two sons reside abroad. The body was taken to the Lyken Funeral Parlour. A post mortem examination will be done some time next week.
