A Post Mortem examination conducted on the body of Mintie Karamchand revealed that the mother of five died from multiple injuries with both blunt and sharp tools. The autopsy was conducted by government pathologist Dr. Nehaul
Singh at the Anthony Funeral Home yesterday.
Commander of B Division, Ian Amsterdam, also confirmed that police are still on the hunt for the suspect, Goldburn December, aka “Goalie”. He stated that they are receiving several reports of his whereabouts. They have also received information that December is willing to turn himself in to authorities. The search however, continues until he is found.
One week ago while in the process of moving out from the Lot 19 Sheet Anchor premises, Mintie Karamchand was approached by her reputed husband Goldburn December. Both parties reportedly exchanged a few words when their 21-year-old daughter, Drucilla December ventured to the lower flat of the two storey home, only to find her mother bleeding profusely from her feet and hands.
Young December told reporters that her father, using a chopper from the kitchen had slashed Karamchand’s ankles and wrists. In her attempt to save her mother, with her infant in hand, she tried to intervene but was ordered by the elder December to move away. At that point the young woman scrambled out the yard and screamed for help from neighbours. No one assisted she said.
An eyewitness recalled seeing Karamchand’s body lying in a pool of blood and still breathing when December, still in a rage, ran back into the yard to finish her off. He wanted her dead. According to the eyewitness, the man grabbed two pieces of wood and clobbered the woman to her head several times. He then escaped on foot.
The dying woman was rushed to the New Amsterdam Hospital subsequently where she succumbed. The police were summoned and a search was launched for the suspect.
The dead woman bore five children for the suspect. From reports gathered, the attacker left Karamchand and their five children and migrated to neighbouring Suriname approximately eight years ago.
He was reportedly deported from that country about a month ago and was staying at the Sheet Anchor home with Karamchand, their daughter and grandchild. The daughter stated that the two were not romantically involved since her mother had moved on. This made December jealous and there were frequent arguments between the two.
