Mc Doom man burns wife with iron

Oct 11, 2012 News

A 29-year-old seaman was yesterday denied bail when he faced Chief Magistrate (Ag) Priya Sewnarine-Beharry accused of burning his reputed wife with a “hot iron” following a disagreement about money.
Police say that on October 5, Kevin Abrams, of 55 Middle Street, Mc Doom, took a “sizzling” clothes iron and pressed it against his partner’s face because she persistently asked him for money.
Abrams pleaded not guilty to the charge. He told the court that his wife accidentally fell on the iron after they had a scuffle and as a consequence sustained burns to her face.
The prosecution asked that the defendant be kept in custody, given that the couple had a history of violent behaviour towards each other and as such both parties served prison sentences. The Magistrate granted the prosecution’s request and Abrams was remanded to prison until October 12.
