THE body of retired secretarial tutor, Calvin Fitz-Henley, who is parliamentarian, Sharon Hay-Webster's uncle, was found with its throat slashed along the busy Holburn Road in New Kingston, St Andrew yesterday.

Fitz-Henley, an Alzheimer's victim, had wandered away from home over the weekend and was being searched for by his relatives.

Yesterday Hay-Webster, who was rocked by the news of her uncle's murder, questioned the killer's motive.
"I am concerned that somebody who clearly was not in his right mind could be murdered in such a fashion. There was nothing to steal from him and nothing was stolen. It is troubling that an older person in trouble could just be cut down like this," Hay-Webster told the Observer.

Crime scene detectives who c****ed the area for clues said they were unsure if Fitz-Henley had been beaten by his attackers.

"There were no bruises or marks on the body to suggest that he was beaten before he was killed, a post-mortem examination would provide us with more detailed information where that is concerned but what we know is that his throat was definitely slashed," Sergeant Keith Steele, sub officer in charge at the New Kingston Police Station, told the Observer.

Yesterday's discovery caused a gridlock in the normally busy area. Several persons on their way to work were forced to wait behind the police yellow tape as crime scene detectives photographed the body sprawled on the lawn of a business place.

Fitz-Henley was wearing a grey shirt, a blue pants and adult incontinent diapers when he was killed.
He operated the Fitz-Henley's Secretarial School in Cross Roads for over 30 years.
