According to the entertainer’s mother, Bibi Sabsook, the young man told her that he was going to “look after a music system over the river and would be home early” as he is the owner of ‘Bashment Family Sound System’.

She recalled that at about 05:30h she heard persons shouting “Bashment lives here! Bashment lives here!” and she peeped outside and noticed a car parked with the headlights facing their home. She said that she thought it was someone coming to rent her son’s system but they called to her telling her that her son was in an accident.

The distraught mother went to the scene of the accident and noticed her son’s lifeless body lying on the road.
Flustered, the mother said her son was taken by the Police to the Diamond Diagnostic Centre and then transported to the Georgetown Public Hospital where he was pronounced dead.

The mother added that Wavel is her only son, having lost her daughter 31 years ago and her husband 23 years ago.
At the home, scores of relatives and friends were comforting the grieve-struck family and were assisting in preparation for wake.

Sabsook was described as a kind-hearted young man, who always wore a smile.
