Warren Dennis of Beterverwagting, East Coast Demerara, has been remanded to prison after he was charged with attempted murder for chopping off the left hand of the mother of his three children, who is a policewoman.
Yesterday, Dennis was arraigned in the Sparendaam Magistrate’s Courts where he was not required to plead to the indictable charge which alleged that on April 23, at Quamina Road, Beterverwagting, he unlawfully and maliciously wounded Alana Hazel, 28, with intent to murder her. Magistrate Zamilla Ally-Seepaul instructed the accused, who was unrepresented, to return to court on May 8.
According to reports, Hazel who is attached to the Police Officers’ Mess, Eve Leary, Georgetown, was attacked by the man and allegedly chopped several times about her body with a cutlass resulting in her left hand being severed at the wrist.
It was reported that the policewoman who also resides in Beterverwagting with another man, went to see her 12 year-old son at her sister-in-law’s, who also resides in the same village, when she was brutally attacked.
Her chopped body was picked up from a trench.
The man and woman reportedly lived together for several years during which she was allegedly subjected to physical abuse.
She is a patient at the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC).
