Uncertainty surrounds Black Bush Polder murder preliminary inquiry
There seems to be some uncertainty as the preliminary inquiry into the murder of Jeewanlall Deonarine called ‘Bingle’, 49 of Lesbeholden; South Black Bush Polder, continues.
Four men, Carlton Chaitram, 37, of Mibicuri, South Black Bush Polder; Nazim Azimulla, 42, of Johanna South, Black Bush Polder; Rajesh Singh, 38, and Kumar Mangru, 17, of Lesbeholden, 
North Black Bush Polder, are charged with the murder.
Chaitram, and Azimulla are being represented by attorney at law Mursaliene Bacchus. The two other accused Singh and Mangru are being represented by Senior Counsel Bernard De Santos in association with attorney at law Pamela De Santos.
The men appeared before Magistrate Rhondell Weaver in the Mibicuri Black Bush Polder Magistrate’s court, for the start of the preliminary inquiry. However on two occasions when the men appeared in court they were told that the matter could not be started, because the magistrate, who is merely holding the brief for another, was not sure if she would be at that court, come January.
According to the Prosecution, Deonarine, a labourer, had left his residence around 20:15hrs on the day in question in a car PFF 8720 with a group of men to buy cigarettes from a neighbouring shop. At the time his family was hosting a farewell party.
At the shop an altercation ensued between Deonarine’s group and another group of men. That group was allegedly armed with knives and cutlasses.
During the altercation Deonarine was allegedly pounced upon and battered to death.
The police eventually turned up and found Deonarine’s body on the Lesbeholden Public Road. He was picked up and rushed to the Port Mourant Hospital where he was pronounced dead on arrival.
A post mortem examination performed on the body showed that the man died from a fractured skull.
The four accused have been further remanded to prison until January 7, when the matter is expected to begin.
