At the Springlands Court on Thursday, Magistrate Krishendat Persaud committed a Corentyne labourer to stand trial at the next sitting of the High Court in New Amsterdam for allegedly stabbing a man to death.
Twenty-seven-year-old Balmiki ‘Mice’ Samidhar is accused of murdering Hemchand ‘Cats’ Persaud on October 29, 2006.
Police Prosecutor Sergeant Michael Grant had told the court that Samidhar and Persaud who are both of Number 47 Village, were drinking at a shop with friends around 7 pm when a misunderstanding occurred between the two.
