High court trial for Herstelling murder accused

Jul 30, 2013 News

 

Ramsahoi Boodhoo, called ‘Baijie’ 43, of Lot 40 Herstelling Public Road, East Bank Demerara will face a Supreme Court Judge at the next sitting of the Demerara Criminal Assizes for the 2011 Murder of Eon Daniels.
On Friday, Providence Magistrate Leron Daly ruled that there was sufficient evidence against Boodhoo for him to appear before a judge and jury at the high court.
According to court documents, Boodhoo was engaged in a brawl with Daniels over a $500 cocaine debt on May 8, 2011.
The brawl ended brutally around 01:00 hr that day, with Daniels a drug addict, also from Herstelling, being knifed to death by Boodhoo whom he had allegedly owed.
On the day in question, the two men were in front of a Hassan Street residence, where a birthday party was in progress, when the man again confronted Daniels. A fight then ensued.
An eyewitness said that both men appeared to be under the influence of alcohol.
He recalled that one of them was armed with a knife while the other was brandishing a ‘pot-spoon’.
Daniels, of Hassan Street, was reportedly slashed in the stomach while fighting on the roadway.
He died about an hour later at the East Bank Demerara Regional Hospital (Diamond Diagnostic Center).
His alleged killer fled the scene but was captured while hiding in the bushes in an area known as the Herstelling sea dam.
On Friday, Magistrate Leron Daly found that the prosecution had proven its case beyond reasonable doubt, hence Boodhoo’s committal.
