Husband accused of pushing wife into KFC glass window

Mar 22, 2013 News

 

 

Orin McKenzie, a 31-year-old, who claims to be a resident of Paradise, East Coast Demerara, was called upon yesterday at the Georgetown Magistrates’ court to answer to the charges of assault, disorderly behaviour and damage to property.
Presiding over the matter was Magistrate Sueanna Lovell, who read the charges to the defendant, all to which he pleaded not guilty.
According to police reports, the accused and his reputed wife were not on terms for some time and as such quarreled constantly. On March 16, the defendant saw the woman, Shonette Daly of Albouystown, eating at the Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) outlet on Vlissengen Road. He approached her and enquired what she was doing there. The woman’s retort sparked an argument. In the heat of the quarrel, the defendant is alleged to have pushed his wife into one of establishment’s glass windows worth $350,000. The police were summoned and the alleged assailant was detained and taken to the Kitty Police Station where he is also accused of having behaved disorderly. He was then charged for three offences.
When asked for his address, the defendant told the court he is a resident of Paradise, but in his statement to the police at Kitty, he told them that he lives in Albouystown. On this basis, the court was not satisfied that the defendant had a fixed place of abode and he was subsequently remanded to prison until his next court appearance scheduled for April 22.
