Wanted brother-in-law captured in abandoned Stanleytown house
Captured: Jermaine Barclay
Expeditious and joint action by ranks of B’ Division, New Amsterdam, has led to the capture of murder suspect, Jermaine Barclay, of Stanleytown, New Amsterdam. He was found at an abandoned house in 47 Stanleytown just around 8:45 am yesterday. The other suspect is still in hiding but police have indicated that they are working on some leads.
Barclay escaped after brazenly stabbing his brother-in-law, Nkomo La Rose, to death on Monday following a heated row over a female at Stanleytown.
Kaieteur News had reported that La Rose, his wife and his brother-in-law were imbibing alcohol together at 41 Stanleytown when an argument between the two erupted and escalated.
The row reportedly stemmed from La Rose’s attempts to advise Barclay about the woman he was dating. His advice was not welcomed by the suspect.
A relative of the suspect had stated that “they had some confrontation about some girl Barclay (the suspect) does follow and me niece throw away the rum and she call the police.
Dead: Nkomo LaRose
“After the police come and talk to them and gone, they still continue to argue and she just pick up sheself and she come way here and sleep. Around 5:30 (that) morning he come and jump over the fence and meet my mother at the back and Barclay ask she where he sister deh and she said she ain’t know but he tell she he come fuh “done she off”.
“Probably he de already stab the man up and then he come for she”.
Police are still on the hunt for the other suspect while Barclay is expected to be charged by Friday.
