Police officials of Suriname examined the entire area and sealed the boat which caused the death. They further took the body to the hospital for other procedures and said that an investigation had been launched into the matter to avoid other possible consequences.
In addition to that, New Haven police also arrived shortly after they were informed about the incident and started their investigation on the matter. Police added that the strong possibility behind the death is the falling from the staircase into the boat.

The incident also raised security concerns over the situation across the Suriname ports as people added that there should be proper safety protocols for the common citizens.
