The deceased has been identified as Devanand Bansie of Mon Repos Railway Embankment, ECD.
He is believed to have been killed during a Hit and Run accident during the hours of 02:00h and 04:00h on Friday.
According to the cops, Bansie had been out celebrating his birthday and returned to his Mon Repos, ECD, home around 02:00h yesterday (Friday) but could not gain entry because his door was locked.

The Paramedics were summoned to the scene, they examined Bansie, and then pronounced him dead.
