“SEERAM”, a 55-year-old farmer/businessman of Walton Hall village, Essequibo Coast, collapsed and died while walking along the Hampton Court public road on Monday afternoon.
He had reportedly been riding a bicycle en route to visit some relatives when, at about 17:00 hrs, he began to feel unwell, stopped riding and started walking before he suddenly collapsed and died at the roadside.
A large crowd quickly gathered around him, and many tried to help, but it was too late.
Seeram’s lifeless body was picked up by his brother and other relatives and taken to the Suddie hospital, where doctors pronounced him dead on arrival.
Known to be a very quiet, law-abiding citizen, Seeram lost his wife about three months ago.
