Sophia man killed by reputed wife during fight
(Kaieteur News) – A domestic dispute turned deadly on Wednesday evening at Lot 890 B Field, Sophia, leaving 25-year-old Akeem Evans dead, allegedly at the hands of his 23-year-old reputed wife, Jenoria “Heaven” Browne.
Dead: Akeem Evans
According to police reports, the murder occurred around 18:10hrs at the lower flat of a two-storey house owned by Evans’ parents. Evans, a labourer, reportedly had ongoing arguments with Browne, stemming from suspicions that she was involved with other men, said his sister, Mellissa Stuart.
Eyewitness Renetta Blake recounted that Evans ran out from the family yard bleeding from a stab wound to his left chest, telling her that Browne had attacked him. Browne reportedly fled the scene, crying. A taxi driver later transported both Evans and Browne to Georgetown Public Hospital, where Evans was pronounced dead on arrival. Browne allegedly left the hospital immediately.
Police on scene observed blood stains throughout the flat, including on a speaker box, living room floor, and table. Cannabis leaves and seeds were also seized for forensic testing. The murder weapon has not been recovered, and Browne remains at large as investigations continue.
The body of Evans was taken to the Georgetown Public Hospital Mortuary awaiting a post-mortem examination, while police continue to question witnesses and collect evidence.
