The Police say they are investigating the circumstances surrounding the murder of Sunil Singh AKA Grey, 42 yrs., a labourer of no fixed place of abode and the wounding of Charles Valenzuela, 21 yrs., a bartender of Diamond Housing Scheme, E.B.D., which occurred about 02:45 hrs. on February 05th, 2017, at Owen Street, Kitty and 169 Lamaha Street, respectively.
Enquiries, the police say, disclosed that at 02:00 h., police ranks went to a Night Club at Lamaha and Newtown Kitty and closed the club after which they left. Shortly after, it was alleged by Charles Valenzuela, who is employed at the Club that three males arrived and wanted to enter the club and he told them it was closed. As a result, an argument ensued and one of the trio stabbed him (Valenzuela) to his left arm. Sunil Singh (deceased) who was present, intervened and was trying to make peace when the said suspect who stabbed Valenzuela dealt Singh a lash to his head. Singh then allegedly ran north into Railway Street Kitty and was pursued by the said suspect who stabbed him several times.
Both Sunil Singh and Valenzuela were rushed to the G.P.H.C., where Singh was pronounced dead on arrival and Valenzuela was treated and sent away. The body of Singh is presently at the Hospital’s Mortuary awaiting a post-mortem, the police said.
The suspect has not yet been apprehended.
