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.
