A woman yesterday informed her husband that she is ending her 13 year old marriage and continuing her relationship with his younger friend, when they appeared in a Georgetown magistrate’s court charged for assaulting each other.
The man 49-year-old taxi driver Michael Thompson and his wife Pamela 42 both declined to offer evidence against each other when they appeared before Magistrate Fabayo Azore.
Thompson was accused of inflicting a beating on his wife, who was in turn also charged for biting him.
The incident stemmed from the man finding out that his wife was having an affair with his friend who is several years younger.
The court was told that on August 20, at Lot 92 D’Anrade Street, New Town Kitty, Michael Thompson assaulted Pamela Thompson causing her actual bodily harm.
Court documents revealed that on the day in question, the defendant went through his wife’s cellular phone and noticed that she was having intimate conversations with his friend. He further observed from one text message that his wife planned to meet with his friend at a private place. He then waited to see if she would execute the said plan.
The woman subsequently left the house and returned home five hours later around midnight.
She was confronted by her husband who accused her of being unfaithful and demanded that she leave the matrimonial home.
The court heard that the woman just smiled and told her husband that she is comfortable with his decision and proceeded to call a taxi. This angered the taxi driver who then slapped his wife, dealt her several punches to the lower abdomen and choked her until she fell unconscious.
When she regained consciousness she went to the nearest police station where she made a report.
Thompson was arrested and charged for the said offence.
He however told investigators that the woman had bitten him and she too was charged.
They both pleaded not guilty to the charges.
In the end, the matter was subsequently dismissed after both parties decided that they will not offer any evidence against each other.
