A 21-year-old female, charged with the murder of a West Demerara woman appeared at the Vreed-en-Hoop Magistrate’s Court yesterday and was remanded to prison.
Roxanne Daniels of Cove and John, East Coast Demerara was not required to plead to the capital offence of murder and was remanded to prison by Magistrate Fazil Azeez.
It is alleged that last Sunday at Vreed-en-Hoop, Daniels murdered Iana Hamilton. Reports are that on the night in question Hamilton had gone to the New Road, Vreed-en-Hoop residence of her husband, from whom she is separated and reportedly had a “scramble” with Daniels during which she was stabbed. Daniels was said to be in a relationship with Hamilton’s husband. Hamilton was transported to the West Demerara Regional Hospital where she was pronounced dead on arrival. Her body bore a stab wound to the left side of her chest. Her husband and Daniels were arrested and following investigations Daniels was charged.
She will return to court on February 25 at the Vreed-en-Hoop Magistrate’s Court.
