A police report detailed that the prisoner was charged earlier during the day at the court with robbery under arms. He was in the court’s lock-ups waiting to be transported to the New Amsterdam Prison. Kaieteur News was told by the sources close to the investigation that the man related to another prisoner who was with him at the time that he did not want to go to jail. A few hours later, one of the policemen on duty was alerted that the man had swallowed a razor blade.
Police reported that the individual who alerted had shouted out, “Officer this boy swallow a razor blade.”
The rank responded and the saw the prisoner lying on the floor. He was rushed immediately to the New Amsterdam Public Hospital for treatment.
Doctors decided to perform an X-ray on him to locate the razor blade but saw none. The prisoner, according to police, then decided to tell the doctor that it was not a razor blade he swallowed but rather, a part of a lighter head.
Police sated that he was still admitted under police guard and treated for vomiting.
