Guyanese killed in vehicular accident in Barbados
A Guyanese living in Barbados for the past ten years died in a vehicular accident on Monday last. He was identified as 29-year-old Govind ‘Andy’ Bhagwandat of Harrow Land, St Philip.
According to Barbados’ Nation News, Bhagwandat’s aunt, Esther, and cousin, Ricky, were trying to piece together the little information given by police.
Dead: Govind ‘Andy’ Bhagwandat
Both relatives saw him on Sunday, and Ricky said they exchanged a few words before parting. The relatives admitted that they did not communicate as regularly since he moved out.
“Andy wasn’t a bad person, yuh know. . . . I was shocked when I hear [of his death] that morning,” Esther said, adding that she and her nephew did not speak to each other on Sunday.
Ricky said his cousin was a church-going person and was out in the field with the Jehovah’s Witnesses on Sunday. He said they would hang out and party together and have a few drinks, but that changed since Bhagwandat started going to church. Relatives revealed that ‘Andy’ was studying the Bible and trying to be one of Jehovah’s Witnesses.
The relatives said the farm worker had two younger brothers, one in Guyana and the other in New York with their mother.
