A Guysuco worker who reportedly chopped another man to death at Princetown, Corriverton after the man attempted to steal from his yard, was charged with murder at the Albion Magistrate’s Court.
It is alleged that around 4 am on December 13, George Moore, 47, murdered Omarnauth ‘Mouth Shammy’ Ramessar.
According to reports, Ramessar, also of Princetown, entered the yard where the suspect was staying with his family by breaking the picket fence.
At the same time, the suspect was going outside when he caught Ramessar removing a wall picture. The suspect picked up his cutlass and when he confronted Ramessar about what he was doing in the yard, he replied “ah just come fuh drink lil water.”
Ramessar suffered “eight gaping wounds to his back and other parts of his body” and was taken to the Skeldon Hospital where he died a few hours later.
Magistrate Chandra Sohan transferred the case to the Springlands Magistrate’s Court for December 27.
