A reputed husband was remanded to jail yesterday after he appeared before Chief Magistrate Priya Beharry at the Georgetown Magistrates’ Court.
He reportedly clobbered his wife on the head with a rolling pin when she could not give an account for his missing pigeons.
Deninnauth Maikoo, of West Ruimveldt, pleaded not guilty to the charge of inflicting grievous bodily harm. He allegedly committed the act against his reputed wife Shamwattie Arjune.
The police prosecutor said that on June 20, last, at West Ruimveldt, the wife noticed that her husband’s pigeons were missing. She had her son search for the birds but he did not find them. It is alleged that the husband came home and asked about the birds and when the response was not in his favour, he got a rolling pin and dealt the woman one lash across the head.
The incident was reported to the police and the defendant was charged.
The prosecution did not object to bail but when the court asked the victim whether she was afraid of the defendant, she replied in the affirmative and the court ordered that he be remanded to jail.
The defendant will return to court next Friday.
