A 62-year-old man tragically lost his life on the Essequibo Coast after the dilapidated wooden house he was living in suddenly collapsed, pinning him underneath.
The dead man has been identified as Fazal Mohomid, a resident of Richmond Village, Region Two (Pomeroon-Supenaam).
Mohomid, a father of two, had been residing alone for several years since the passing of his wife. He occupied a small, weathered structure situated on a plot of land owned by one of his brothers.
Neighbours recounted that the elderly man had been raking under the house after tying his hammock when the building gave way, collapsing on top of him. They said they had urged him on several occasions to repair the dilapidated structure, but he had declined the offers of help.
Family members and residents of the Richmond community described him as a quiet and humble individual.
