What started off as a joyous occasion turned into a sorrowful one after a 26-year-old man was beaten to death at a wedding house.
The incident took place in the community of Foulis on the East Coast of Demerara. The dead man has been identified as 26-year-old labourer Rudendra Persaud.
A Police report explained that Persaud was at the wedding house of a family member enjoying the celebrations when a brawl started and he was hit repeatedly to the head with pieces of wood by two men who are known to the family.
The two men reportedly attacked another family member first and Persaud got involved. That resulted in the assailants turning their attention on him.
He was rushed to the Georgetown Hospital but died as a result of his multiple injuries.
The two suspects who bolted from the wedding house are still to be found.
