Woman subdues drunken abuser
The irate woman berates her abuser after tying him to her verandah.
The straw that broke the camel’s back forced a frustrated woman to physically subdue a drunken, abusive neighbour who claims to have powerful connections.
The man who is known to be verbally abusive and a constant spectacle in the neighbourhood was subdued and tied to a veranda until police arrived after he entered the woman’s yard at Third Street, Land of Canaan, East Bank Demerara, yesterday.
The man, who was identified as Anil Roberts and was heavily under the influence of alcohol, first pelted the woman’s house and then entered her yard in a rage to attack her.
The frustrated woman decided to take matters into her own hands after repeated calls for police assistance initially proved futile.
Yesterday while the man was hurling abuses at her, she grabbed him and tied him up, a move that cooled him off until the cops arrived to take him into police custody at the Timehri Police Station.
