East Canje man charged for harbouring alleged wife-killer
Kenneth Khanai called “Puri” who was recently charged for having an unlicensed firearm and ammunition, is now being charged for harbouring an alleged wife-killer.
He appeared on Wednesday in the Reliance Magistrate’s Court before Magistrate Adela Nagamootoo.
Prosecutor Corporal Orin Joseph stated that Khanai, harboured and assisted Ramdhanie Persaud called ‘Prackash’ or ‘Prack, ’ who had murdered his reputed wife, Bibi Shameena Deen, on Tuesday 20th March at their home.
Khanai’s attorney, Charrandasss Persaud, applied for bail, but this request was refused.
In the meanwhile the trial is continuing in the gun and ammo matter.
The police acting on information had descended on a farm owned by the accused at Bess Cut, New Forest East Canje Berbice where they allegedly found a .38 special revolver, 23 -16 gauge cartridges and seven live 12 gauge cartridges.
Khanai, who was found on the farm, was arrested and charged. A later test of the weapon showed that it was used to kill Deen.
Khanai had told investigators that Persaud hid the weapon there. Both matters will continue on Wednesday 23rd January 2013.
