Woman on trial for hiring man to kill husband

The trial of Beverley Persaud who police say contracted her now co-accused Oswald Junior Yaw to kill her husband, is scheduled to commence this morning at the High Court in Georgetown. 

The jointly-charged duo was indicted yesterday morning before Justice Navindra Singh and a 12-member mixed jury.

Persaud is accused of hiring Yaw to kill her husband—block maker Nathan Andrew Persaud, whose motionless body was discovered on September 10th, 2015 at his Lot 66 Herstelling, East Bank Demerara home.
