Last rites: The body of Leonard Parjohn being removed from
his residence yesterday for cremation
at Good Hope on the East Coast of Demerara. Parjohn was
shot dead by bandits on Wednesday at his beer garden in
Charlestown.
Saying goodbye:
Three of Leonard `Roy' Parjohn's children are
seen paying their last respects to their father at a ceremony held
at his Ketley Street home yesterday. The man was one of three
persons who died after a bandit attack on his business place and
another next door to him on Wednesday. The bandits robbed the man of
a large amount of cash and jewellery before shooting him dead as he
lay next to his wife on the bedroom floor. In this photograph the
man's son, Steven, and two daughters, Nicole and Melissa are seen
paying their respects while their grieving mother Nandanie,
sitting at left, looks on. Missing from the photograph is
three-year-old Angelena. Parjohn was cremated according to Hindu rites at Good Hope, East Coast
Demerara.
