Authorities in Guyana have launched an investigation following the grim discovery of a severely decomposed body on the Corentyne seashore. The remains were found on October 26, 2025, in a grassy area near No. 43 Village Seashore, Berbice. The Guyana Police Force reported that the body was stumbled upon by a 31-year-old fisherman from No. 35 Village, Corentyne, who was walking along the shore after his fishing boat became stranded due to low tide. While navigating a track leading to the public road, the fisherman detected a strong odor and subsequently uncovered the remains. Police promptly arrived at the scene, processed the area, and transported the body to the Port Mourant Public Hospital. Given the advanced state of decomposition, the cause of death remains undetermined. The remains have been placed in cold storage at Ramoo’s Funeral Home, awaiting identification and a post-mortem examination.
