The Guysuco employee, Satish Kisten, called ‘Dingo’, 29, of Brothers Village, East Bank Berbice, who was found dead in a trench on Friday died by drowning following a bout of epilepsy (fits).
These were the findings by Dr Vivekananda Brijmohan after conducting a post mortem examination on the body on Tuesday at the New Amsterdam hospital. This finding dispels rumours that the man was bitten by a snake. Marks that were believed to be from a snake bite were seen on the man’s neck. Those marks were later confirmed to be ant bites.
Police and Guysuco officials had launched an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the death of the recliner (trench cleaner) attached to Guysuco Providence Estate.
According to reports, Kisten and four other seeders were dispatched to clean a canal at an area called ‘Three Bridge’ South Glasgow on Friday. The men were engaged in removing weeds from a 12-foot canal at an area about two miles from the Glasgow Public Road.
It was reported that the men had regrouped and just resumed work when Kisten was discovered missing. Upon closer examination the man’s hat was seen floating in the canal. An alarm was raised and a search of the canal was conducted. Kisten’s lifeless body was eventually fished out of the canal.
Kisten leaves to mourn a wife and two children.
