A Nigg, Corentyne, man who was in the habit of beating his wife whenever he smoked illicit drugs will not be able to continue his bad habit for a long time.
He was jailed on Friday for being in possession of cocaine and smoking utensils.
The man, Suresh Ramdial, called ‘Suresh’, 44, of 218 Nigg, Corentyne, Berbice and formerly of Springlands, was sentenced to a total of five years in jail by Magistrate Omeyana Hamilton.
When he appeared before the magistrate yesterday at the New Amsterdam Magistrate’s Court, he pleaded guilty to the charges of possession of Narcotic for the purpose of trafficking and being in possession of a smoking utensil.
Both offences were committed on December 15, at his Nigg Home.
Prosecuting Inspector Satrohan Dayaram told the court that Ramdial lived with his reputed wife, Sherry Bisnauth, and was always in the habit of beating the woman whenever he drank and smoked narcotics.
On the day in question about 14:30 hrs the defendant’s wife returned home and observed him smoking drugs.
The woman left and reported the matter to the police who immediately accompanied her to the home where a search was conducted and the drugs and smoking utensil were found in a butter container.
Ramdial was arrested and charged.
He was sentenced to three years for possession of the drugs and two years for being in possession of the smoking utensil.
