A post mortem performed on the remains of 57-year-old Vicramadictya ‘Vic’ Puran has revealed that he died as a result asphyxiation due to drowning. The post mortem examination was done yesterday at the Georgetown Public Hospital Mortuary by Government Pathologist, Dr. Nehaul Singh and was witnessed by Puran’s son, Masqood Puran.
The prominent lawyer was found dead in his Toyota Tundra about 06:45 hours on Tuesday at Esau and Jacob, Mahaicony, East Coast Demerara.
Puran’s vehicle was spotted, partly submerged in a canal, by a farmer who was making his way to his farmlands. It is believed that Puran lost control of his vehicle and ended up in the trench some time between 18:00 hours and 19:00 hours on Monday.
One resident told this publication that the man who made the discovery noticed that there were skid marks on a turn and there were signs of a vehicular mishap. Further checks revealed that a vehicle was in the canal. It was only after a tractor operator pulled the vehicle from the trench then persons discovered Puran’s lifeless body.
The lawyer was pulled from his vehicle in a crouching position (rigor mortis had already set in) with all of his valuables intact.
The dead man’s close friend and colleague, Glenn Hanoman, told this publication that Puran, left his home at around 17:20 hours on Monday for his routine run into his pig farm at Mahaicony.
Residents also said they saw Puran passing in the area as he normally would every other day, but he did not pass out. Puran last spoke to his wife around 18:00 hours. They had made plans to celebrate his birthday later Monday evening.
