The body of Victor Persaud lying on the road next to his
mangled bicycle.
Police have detained a suspect in the death of 52-year-old Victor Persaud, called ‘Bugger Grip’ who was bludgeoned to death early yesterday morning.
Persaud, of Lusignan Pasture, East Coast Demerara, succumbed hours after a man with whom he had a heated argument, apparently over a misunderstanding over drugs, clubbed him.
His body lay on the road in front of his yard, sprawled next to his broken bicycle.
A neighbour who resides about a few feet from where Persaud’s body was lying, said that about 02:30 hours she heard two persons arguing but thought that it was the usual drunken row.
“People does pass hey fuh go home when dey drunk and dem does deh cussin, so me thought was that,” the neighbour explained.
However as the row persisted, she peered through her window and through the darkness saw two men scuffling with each other.
“I hear one ah dem seh, ‘Me give you me money fuh buy ganja and you spend am out pon cocaine.’ Dat was all we hearing. Den me hear like lash firing. We don’t know is who give who money but this morning when we rise up, we see dat man lie down deh,” the woman said.

The neighbors are guilty just as the man who lashed him on his head. They heard the man crying and groaning to death and no one came to render a hand. I know in certain countries they would have been charged with murder for doing that!!
