Guyana: The Guyana Police Force has officially identified the decomposed body which was found stuffed inside a barrel at the Le Repentir Cemetery on the night of Christmas as 39-year-old Levi Williams.

The thorough investigations by the Guyana Police Force indicate that the victim was allegedly murdered sometime between the early hours of December 23 and the night of December 25, 2025, near Charlotte Street, Georgetown.

According to police officials, Williams was accused by a group of men of allegedly stealing a firearm and as a result, he was reportedly restrained at a suspected drug block near the Guyana’s Charlotte Street area and was severely beaten with wire.

Investigators further say that the victim became helpless and was later placed into a blue coloured plastic bag. Police are now alleging that Williams was then loaded into the back of a motor bus and was later transported to the le Repentir Cemetry where his dead body was dumped in a barrel along the section located between Louisa Row and St. Stephen Street.
