Two field foremen attached to two different estates ended up in a fight over a $100 Compact Disk. One of the protagonists ended up in hospital.
The matter is now engaging the attention of the court.
Devendar Samwaru, a field foreman attached to the Guysuco Rose Hall Estate, appeared before Magistrate Krisendat Persaud on Wednesday in the Whim Magistrate’s court on a charge of unlawfully and maliciously wounding Karam Sahid, a field foreman attached to the Albion Estate.
The wounding is alleged to have occurred on Saturday May 4, at Free Yard, Port Mourant, Corentyne, Berbice.
According to prosecutor Corporal Sherlock King, the two men are known to each other and are said to be friends.
On the day in question Samwaru a father of two, was said to be under the influence of alcohol when he allegedly committed the offence.   He allegedly went over to the home of Sahid who was playing music at the time and accused him of having his CD in his possession. An argument ensued and Samwaru is alleged to have taken out a knife from his waist and stabbed Sahid about his body causing him to be hospitalized.
The matter was reported and the accused was arrested and charged.
