TCL worker shot dead

His nude body was later found with a towel nearby.

According to police, at about 1 am, neighbours heard gunshots and contacted police.

Two men were seen fleeing the scene. Police arrived and found Pascall’s body.

Pascall was a plumber at TCL and completed the 5 pm - 12 am shift before he went home and was killed. His mother Marilyn Gonzales-Pascall, 57, said she was awakened by a telephone call from a neighbour informing her that her son was shot dead. Gonzales-Pascall lives a short distance from her son.

“I did not hear any gunshots as I was sound asleep. The neighbours told me they heard gunshots and my son screaming.

They killed him in cold blood,” the emotional woman said. Gonzales-Pascall said she last time she spoke to her son was at about 5 pm on Wednesday, when he left for work.

“I just can’t believe this is happening. Crime is out of control in this country, I never thought crime would be in front my doorsteps.

I am hurting as a mother,” she said. “My son was loved by everyone in the village and everywhere he went. He was the type of person who was always making jokes. I don’t know why anyone would want to do this to him,” she said.

Pascall was the third of four siblings. He had a passion for cricket and played in several clubs across the country. No motive for the killing has been established, no arrest made and investigations are continuing.
