The tomb bore the body of 29-year-old Ramanand Mingo, of Clifton Village, Corentyne, Berbice.

Singh said Mingo was buried with a ‘cross body bag’, something that he always wore but there was nothing inside to be stolen.
According to Singh, nothing was taken from the tomb or the casket. The Police are investigating.
