inflicted by her husband, after she was reportedly caught having sex on the beach with her lover.
Simone Ritchie, of Danielstown Village, and her husband, Suresh Prabunauth, according to reports attended the “One for the Road Show” at the Anna Regina Community Centre ground, Sunday evening last.
After some time, the report added, Ritchie sneaked out of the ground unknown to her husband and she and her lover went back to Danielstown seawall, where she engaged in sexual activity. It was around 2:00 hours.
Her husband who was said to be carrying a cutlass, attempted to chop the man but the lover dodged and the blow landed on Ritchie. The police have since apprehended Prabunauth who is expected to be charged shortly.
Speaking from her hospital bed, Ritchie, 34, had a different story that in no way suggested any sexual activity. She said that earlier that evening she had an argument with her husband.
Richie further said that to cool her head she and her daughter, Sophie, went to the Danielstown seawall, around 8:00 hours Monday.
While there, Ritchie added she noticed her husband talking to a woman and overheard the woman asking her husband why he was carrying a cutlass.
She said before she could have realized what her husband’s intention was, he started to chop her about her body.
Ritchie said she had to run to escape further injury. The woman who was talking to her husband, reported the matter to the police station and hired a car to transport Ritchie to the Suddie Public Hospital, where she remains a patient.
