The body of the 11-year-old girl, Adri­an­na Younge, who was al­leged­ly ab­duct­ed and tak­en in­to the Dou­ble Day Ho­tel, Tuschen, East Bank Es­se­qui­bo, was found Thurs­day morn­ing in a pool at the ho­tel, in­ten­si­fy­ing ten­sion among fam­i­ly mem­bers and oth­er per­sons.

This lat­est de­vel­op­ment has cast greater doubt about the cir­cum­stances sur­round­ing the girl’s dis­ap­pear­ance and the sud­den emer­gence of her body.

Po­lice on Wednes­day said their video sur­veil­lance sys­tem showed that Adri­an­na Younge en­tered a red and black Toy­ota Raum mo­tor car bear­ing reg­is­tra­tion num­ber PSS 4684, which drove off in an east­ern di­rec­tion to­wards Vreed-en-Hoop.

The ho­tel was searched on Wednes­day by fam­i­ly mem­bers and lat­er by po­lice.

Po­lice said they searched around the ho­tel, in­clud­ing rooms, store room, yard, and roof, but they came up emp­ty-hand­ed.

How­ev­er, the ho­tel man­ag­er said the sur­veil­lance cam­eras at the fa­cil­i­ty were not work­ing when he was asked by in­ves­ti­ga­tors.

Some­one was heard say­ing, “we searched the pool, we searched the pool yes­ter­day (Wednes­day)”.
