Guyanese on murder charge in Barbados
Guyanese, Feroze Rafikh, was on Friday brought before a Barbados Magistrate’s court charged with murder of a person believed to be a peacekeeper in a dispute, and was remanded to prison until August 16.
Rafikh, 42, of Second Avenue, Amity Lodge, Christ Church, is charged with the stabbing to death of 26-year-old Tito Gill, who reportedly attempted to stop two men from fighting around midnight Tuesday when he received stab wounds to the abdomen and armpit. He died in hospital the following morning.
The incident occurred in the home where Gill lived in Seclusion Gardens, Black Rock, just outside Bridgetown. Media reports are that Gill, a Barbadian, who has been closely affiliated with the Guyanese community in Barbados, shared the four-bedroom house with his Guyanese girlfriend, Crystal Lambert, along with her relatives.
According to reported statements of Gill’s brother-in-law, Parmanand Lambert, Gill was stabbed while making peace between an occupant of the house and a man who lives on Westbury Road, another area that borders Bridgetown, where the dispute originally flared up but continued at the Black Rock residence.
“This should not have gone so far, it shouldn’t have reached this stage. We all lived under the same roof,” Parmanand Lambert said.
