Edith Reuben, the Yarrowkabra housewife whose body was found hanging from a mango tree in her yard last week, was hanged and the police have since arrested two suspects, including her husband, who they say have confessed to the crime.
Deputy Director of the Guyana Police Force’s Corporate Communications Unit, Stan Gouveia yesterday said that investigators were able to rule out suicide after an autopsy showed that Reuben died as a result of asphyxiation due to hanging compounded by blunt trauma to the head.
