East Canje man jailed for brutalizing woman

Feb 03, 2018 News

Roy Archer, 32, of Main Street, Cumberland, East Canje, Berbice, was yesterday sentenced to three months in jail for causing grievously bodily harm. The act was perpetrated on Jaia Bansie on 9th November, 2017, at Main Street, Cumberland, East Canje Berbice.
Archer appeared before Magistrate Renita Singh in the Reliance Magistrate’s Court.
The case for the prosecution was presented by Prosecutor Corporal Winston Poliah, who told the court that the victim and the accused live close by and are known to each other. On the day in question, Bansie locked her door and went to sleep. During the night she heard a loud knocking on her door. She thought it was her son and went and opened the door. There she was confronted by Archer, who cuffed her in her face, causing injuries. The man then fled.
The matter was reported and Archer was arrested and charged.
