Taxi driver gets two years for death of pedal cyclist

Feb 27, 2009 News

Magistrate Sherdell Issacs-Marcus yesterday sentenced a 31-year-old taxi driver to two years’ imprisonment after he was found guilty of causing death by dangerous driving.
Ameron Gulab, of 72 Kersaint Park, La Bonne Intention, East Coast Demerara was charged with causing the death of 34-year-old Sattuar Seenauth, of Good Hope, also on the East Coast of Demerara.
The accident which resulted in the severing of Seenauth’s right leg occurred on the Good Hope Public Road on April 22 last year.

Despite arguments by his attorney Anil Nandlall that there was no eyewitness to the accident, the court determined that Gulab was guilty of dangerous driving after admitting a caution statement into evidence.
Police prosecutor, Assistant Superintendent Edmund Cooper had asked the court to admit the caution statement in which Gulab claimed that he was driving at 85 kilometres per hour – which is above the prescribed speed limit – when the accident occurred,.

On the day in question, Seenauth was cycling to the Mon Repos Ice Factory where he was employed as a watchman.
Gulab, who was driving a motor car, was reportedly speeding when he collided with Seenauth, hurling him several feet into the air.
He was killed on the spot.
