Teen detained, Police seek husband

Police in Mahaica have detained an 18-year-old for questioning into last Sunday’s rape and stabbing. Kaieteur News was reliably informed that the teen was picked up some time during the course of yesterday along with two other siblings.

However, after several hours of questioning, the two others were released and the 18-year-old further detained. This newspaper understands that the teen has since told investigators that he was at the woman’s house but never inflicted any injuries.

Information reaching this newspaper states the teen revealed that he was passing the woman’s house on Sunday when she asked him for a favour.

The teen reportedly told investigators that the woman in turn offered him sex. It was further revealed that during the act the woman’s husband came home and caught them in the act.

A source close to the investigations added that, after the teen saw the woman’s husband, he fled the house, leaving the woman in the house with her husband.

The Police have since turned their attention on the woman’s husband, who has now gone into hiding.
On Sunday last, the woman’s husband had told this newspaper that, at around 10:30 a.m., he went home, only to find his 34-year-old wife lying in a pool of blood without her underwear. The man initially said the woman related to him that a man from the area raped her and stabbed her.

“When I walk in I see she deh crying and blood deh all over she, so I tell she ah coming back, ah going to de Police station fuh help,” the man said.

The woman, up to press time yesterday, was still a patient at the Georgetown Public Hospital. She is currently nursing several stab wounds to her hands, back, and genital area. Investigations are ongoin.
