The gunman pointed the gun at Mahase's friend, warning her to stay inside.

Some time later, the body was found and the police were notified. They found five rounds of 9mm spent shell casings with the markings "Tech Luger 9mm."

Mahase's van was unlocked and had been ransacked. It was unclear what, if anything, had been stolen from it.

Among the first responders were PCs Esahack and Khan of the Barrackpore Police Station.

ASP Bandhan, Sgt Dhunkarie and other police from the Southern Division also visited as well as Sgt Deo, W/Cpl Dyer-Baptiste and WPC Valdez of the Homicide Bureau of Investigations, Region Three.

DMO Dr Kiran Ramlogan viewed the body and ordered it removed for safekeeping at the mortuary of the San Fernando General Hospital pending an autopsy at the Forensic Science Centre in St James.

W/Cpl Dyer-Baptiste is leading the investigation.

No one has been arrested.
