…after confrontation
A 45-year-old fisherman is battling for his life at the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC) after he was allegedly stabbed by his reputed wife.
Daniel Persaud, of Lot 99 Sheet Anchor Village, Berbice, was stabbed to right of his back at his home two Saturdays ago.
The father of four was reportedly attacked when he confronted his reputed wife about an ongoing affair with a neighbor.
According to information received, Persaud found out that his wife of ten years was having an affair with their neighbour.
He allegedly went home and confronted her. “The two of them were in the kitchen and when he ask her about the affair, they had an argument. His son said that he choked her,” Fizul Sattaur, the injured man’s brother, explained.
He added that he was further informed that his brother walked away but his reputed wife allegedly walked behind him and stabbed him to the right shoulder.
Persaud’s screams alerted his neighbours, who then called one of his siblings, who resides nearby.
He was first taken to the New Amsterdam Hospital in Berbice before being transferred to the GPHC.
According to Sattaur, medical personnel at the hospital informed a family member that Persaud’s condition is listed as critical.
“They (doctors) say that he was stabbed with force and that one of his lungs leaking and there is a problem with his heart,” Persaud’s sibling explained.
The fisherman remains in a critical condition at the GPHC while his wife is said to be in police custody.
