The victim, Guyanese national, Patricia Duncan, 41, last employed as a security guard at a Sea Lots fish processing company, succumbed to a chop injury to her neck around 6.30 p.m. Monday at the Port of Spain General Hospital, the Trinidad Express has reported.
Shortly after mid-day Monday, she was attacked at her workplace by a relative who chopped her once to the neck after he accused her of infidelity.
