Mother of three murdered
at Corriverton By Michel Outridge A mother of three was found murdered in her bedroom at Corriverton, Berbice, yesterday by her husband.
Dead is
Nalini
Bhoge, called “Nalo”,
46, of 19 Line Path. The
woman’s bloodied body was found in her bedroom with her
throat slashed. Her husband and mother are in police custody assisting with investigations, reports said.
Residents
said that the relationship between Bhoge and her husband was a
‘stormy one’ and up to Saturday night they were heard
arguing loudly. They said
that the man was under the influence and apparently they had
another misunderstanding. The
husband claimed that he went out yesterday morning and upon
his return was reading the newspapers and smelled
‘something’ burning; and when he called out to his wife
and he got no response, he went in search of her. His wife
had been preparing a meal, he said. Then he
found her bloodied body in the bedroom. He also
gave conflicting reports about taking one of his daughters to
school and then going to work at a sawmill. Reports
indicate that there was no sign of a robbery as nothing seemed
to be missing from the home. The three children were questioned by policemen at the Springlands Station.
Police
said a blood-stained cutlass and
ice-pick were found near the
body.
A man has been arrested and is in custody assisting with investigations.
