A 41-year-old man died two days af­ter be­ing run over by a car dri­ven by a close fe­male rel­a­tive fol­low­ing an al­ter­ca­tion.

Po­lice said Narindra Par­ri­man, a sur­vey­or, of Good­man Trace, Rock Road, Pe­nal, passed away around 10 pm Mon­day, hours af­ter he was dis­charged from the San Fer­nan­do Gen­er­al Hos­pi­tal.

How­ev­er, of­fi­cers are await­ing the re­sults of an au­top­sy to de­ter­mine how to pro­ceed with their in­ves­ti­ga­tion. 

Ac­cord­ing to a po­lice re­port, around 10. 20pm on Sat­ur­day, of­fi­cers re­spond­ed to a re­port of a dis­tur­bance at Par­ri­man's house.

When they ar­rived at the lo­ca­tion, they ob­served that Par­ri­man was in­jured. He told po­lice that he and his 29-year-old fe­male rel­a­tive were drink­ing al­co­hol at his home when they got in­to an al­ter­ca­tion. She got in­to her car, a sil­ver Nis­san Ver­sa, in an at­tempt to leave but he stood in front of the ve­hi­cle.

The woman drove for­ward and struck Par­ri­man who fell on the ground. She then drove over him. The EHS am­bu­lance took him to the San Fer­nan­do Gen­er­al Hos­pi­tal where he was treat­ed and then dis­charged on Mon­day.   How­ev­er, around 10 pm that day, he com­plained of chest pain and the fe­male rel­a­tive took him to the Siparia Dis­trict Health Fa­cil­i­ty where he died.

An au­top­sy is ex­pect­ed to be done at the Foren­sic Sci­ence Cen­tre. Guardian Me­dia was told that the woman was ques­tioned but is not in po­lice cus­tody. 

Of­fi­cers from the Pe­nal Po­lice Sta­tion are in­ves­ti­gat­ing.
