Relatives of Ravindra Sookhoo who was killed last month at Diamond Housing Scheme is alleging that the police force is being lackadaisical in apprehending the perpetrator of the dastardly act.
According to the dead man’s wife, Savitri Singh, she wants justice for her husband’s demise and is calling on the Police Force to step up their operations in apprehending the perpetrator who is said to be in the interior.

She said that her two children are now fatherless. Lives will change tremendously since their father’s passing. However, she does not want her husband’s case to be another murder. “I want justice for what happen!”
According to reports, Sookhoo who was a carpenter was stabbed to death on December 26, 2010 allegedly by his brother-in-law, following a scuffle after the now dead man had slapped his wife during a family gathering at Diamond, East Bank Demerara.
The father of two had met his alleged killer, his brother-in-law, for the first time on Boxing Day at a family gathering at his wife’s mother’s home in the Diamond Housing Scheme.
A brawl at a Diamond New Scheme house two Sunday nights ago ended with a 24-year-old labourer being stabbed to death and his 19-year-old attacker fleeing the scene.
