A man who was beaten unconscious by his cousin, doused with gasoline and then set on fire, succumbed to his injuries on Saturday (25th November 2023) while warded in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of the San Fernando General Hospital. The deceased has been identified as 40-year-old Anil Kowlessar. The suspect is currently in Police custody.
According to reports, shortly before Midnight on 12th November 2023, while at Boissiere Trace in Gran Couva, Kowlessar and the suspect, who is a cousin, had an argument which escalated into a fight. Kowlessar was badly beaten and slammed into a wall, which left him unconscious. While on the ground, the suspect allegedly doused him with gasoline and set him ablaze. Other relatives extinguished the fire and took him to Hospital, where he was warded for first-degree burns. Kowlessar’s mother, Angela, said they were at a family birthday celebration when the incident occurred. She said the two (2) men were arguing over a van that was allegedly loaned to Kowlessar by the suspect. “I was sleeping when I was awakened and told that my big son was killed. I say no, allyuh don’t know what allyuh saying? Is when the man come up, take out a gas container and a cutlass, he telling me he now kill my big son,” Angela said as she broke down in tears. “Christmas coming up and Anil not here. He was the life of the party. He would come and hug everybody and make sure everybody ok. He was such a nice child and grew up to be a nice man,” she added. Angela said on Saturday morning (25th November 2023), close relatives were called to the Hospital to visit Kowlessar as he was not doing well. He subsequently died at 4:45 PM. Investigators are said to be awaiting the results of an autopsy to be conducted at the Forensic Science Centre. More on this as it becomes available. [Source: T&T Guardian] We are a small operation.
