Taking the stand yesterday to tell his story of how he was nearly killed, Deonarine Persaud recalled being chopped several times by his neighbour on the night of September 24th 2011.
The neighbour, Andy Boodram, called “Boy,” who vehemently denies ever attempting to murder Persaud, is now on trial before Justice Navindra Singh and a 12-member jury at the Georgetown High Court.
According to Persaud, also known as “Anil,” the attack stemmed from an earlier request he had made to Boodram, asking him to lower his music as his infant son was ill at the time and asleep.
