Millionaire businessman Jack Ramoutarsingh….MULTI-MILLIONAIRE entrepreneur Jack Ramoutarsingh, 62, died of a heart attack yesterday at Surgi-Med Clinic in San Fernando — two days after he was admitted at the clinic after suffering chest problems.

Grieving relatives and close family friends consoled each other outside the Penitence Street clinic on hearing news of the death of Ramoutarsingh, former owner of Dansteel in La Romaine. Newsday learnt that his wife Beatrice Ramoutarsingh and other close relatives were at his bedside when he died at about 3 pm.

Earlier this year, Ramoutarsingh and his sister Helen Bhagwansingh, who manages the Bhagwansingh hardware empire, were locked in a $32M legal battle over land. This case was before Justice James Aboud in the San Fernando High Court. The siblings eventually settled the matter out of court.

Ramoutarsingh, who was the managing director of Trinrico and owner of several other companies was the father of five children Viliana, Daniel, Jackie, Cassel and Dodi. Funeral arrangements are yet to be made.
