Murder accused Onika King nabbed in French Guiana
After two years on the run…
After almost two years on the run, murder suspect Onika King is back behind bars, following her arrest in French Guiana.
Kaieteur News understands that King was nabbed by French Guiana authorities on Sunday after being arrested for simple larceny. She was subsequently deported and is being held at the East La Penitence Police Station.
Onika King
King escaped from police custody in November 2008 while awaiting trial for the murder of her husband, Selwyn King, who was stabbed to death in Festival City. It is alleged that policemen who were escorting the suspect allowed her to use a toilet at a liquor restaurant at Good Hope, Mahaica.
According to reports, the police vehicle transporting King and another female murder accused, Ashanti Schultz, had stopped at the liquor restaurant.
The ranks and the two murder accused allegedly entered the liquor restaurant where the policemen ordered beers.
While there, King reportedly told the ranks that she wanted to relieve herself and they allowed her to go to the restaurant’s washroom.
It is alleged that while the ranks remained at their table, the accused crawled through a hole in the fence at the back of the premises.
