The Guyana Police Force reported this morning that the body of 19-year-old  Ganesh Sookcharan, of Belle West, Canal No. 2 Polder, WBD, was recovered this morning  in the vicinity of the koker at Wales, WBD.

The  young man was one of the persons who had been in the motor car that was found submerged in a trench at Canal No. 2 yesterday Monday June 22, 2015.

The two other young men whose bodies were found yesterday, have been identified as 20-year-old Premraj Bhola and 19-year-old Alan Solomon.

The three friends were reportedly on a joyride when the driver Ganesh Sookcharan lost control of the car and it plunged into the trench.

Sookcharan’s father had rented the car and was unaware that his son had taken the car and had left for a drive with his friends.

The three young men were close friends and lived in the same community. Following the discovery of the two bodies yesterday, villagers launched a search for the third body.

It was only spotted in the canal early this morning.  Investigations are underway.
