First form Rosignol girl found hangingA 12-year-old girl of Rosignol, West Berbice was found hanging in her bedroom around 2 pm on Thursday and relatives are still trying to figure out what may have caused the tragedy. Sharmilla Muneshwar, a first form student of the Rosignol Primary
School Secondary department used a shawl to take her own life. Her
mother, Rajkumarie called `Babsie’ said her daughter had no problems
with anyone, while a sister told this newspaper “the girl went good,
good whole day.” There was no response and when the sister tried to open the door she found that it was locked. She then decided to climb and look over into the bedroom and saw a shawl belonging to Muneshwar tied over the beam. Upon closer inspection the sister saw that the girl’s neck was
wrapped in the shawl and she raised an alarm. Rajkumarie said she
immediately contacted the Blairmont Police Station and when the officers
opened the door the girl was on her knees and she appeared to be dead. Rajkumarie fondly recalls that her daughter loved to dance. She said
the girl would take the very shawl that she used to hang herself to dance
and entertain them in the home.
