The MV Barima disaster off the Essequibo Coast has claimed 27 lives, including four children, with 83 still missing and 69 survivors confirmed — a revised total of 179 people on board after uncovering an inaccurate initial manifest. Footage from loading operations exposed the true passenger count, and two additional crew members were added to survivors after aiding the search. The captain and two crew members rescued tested positive for cannabis and are now in custody as authorities investigate potential charges. The vessel’s entire management team has been suspended to preserve investigation integrity. Police have secured critical loading dock footage for review. Identification efforts continue for the 27 recovered bodies, while regional forces — including a 15-member French Guiana military team and Trinidad and Tobago’s dive units — are supporting the ongoing search.
