Still in shock over his bru­tal mur­der, a rel­a­tive of Amar Rooplal said she was first alert­ed through so­cial me­dia that a body with Amar tat­tooed on the fin­gers had been found in Ste Madeleine.

The tat­too, as well as an ear­ring in the shape of an A, on the body, prompt­ed her vis­it to the San Fer­nan­do Po­lice Sta­tion on Tues­day evening where her worst fears were con­firmed.

On Tues­day around 4.40 am se­cu­ri­ty of­fi­cers were on pa­trol along Cedar Hill Es­tate Road when they ob­served a body, which was lat­er iden­ti­fied as Rooplal, on the ground with blood around him.
