Forty-two year-old Latchmin Mohabir of Agriculture Road, Triumph, East Coast Demerara, who was savagely chopped by her husband in full view of the couple’s 11-year-old daughter is said to be somewhat out of danger as she remains hospitalised at the Georgetown Public Hospital.
Yesterday, the woman’s brother Seeraj Singh told this newspaper that his sister is in a lot of pain.
“She trying to talk, but the pain too much and she tell we that the doctor want to see me and she other brother,” Singh said. According to the man, the injuries his sister received are so severe that in the case of her arms, she may not be able to ever use them again. He however alluded to the fact that the doctors at the Georgetown Public Hospital are trying their best to save whatever they could for his sister.
Meanwhile, Singh said that prior to Wednesday’s incident his sister was abused by her husband of thirteen years, but for some reason it was never taken seriously. The man related that he witnessed his now dead brother-in-law hitting his sister about five times during their union, but it never seemed too violent.
“He would cuff she during arguments and we would always talk to he, but he never threaten she…we use to always talk to he and she.”
The man noted that the incidents were never reported to the police because of the couple’s two children.
However Singh now regrets that certain signs were missed, since he has now lost his brother-in-law and can only hope for the best for his sister. He even offered a few words of advice to any woman who is being abused by their partner.
“Don’t sit and take it, talk out, tell somebody, tell the police because when you tek it fuh nothing it could end up like dis.”
On Tuesday last, Latchmain Mohabir was viciously chopped about her body by her husband of thirteen years, Subesh Mohabir. According to reports, the incident started after the woman asked her husband to go to the market to purchase stuff for her to cook.
The couple’s 11 year-old daughter Keisha initially told this newspaper that her mother had asked her father to go to the market and he suddenly whipped out a knife and stabbed her to the elbow. He then picked up a cutlass and began chopping her as she tried fleeing the yard. She was eventually rescued by her brother and taken to the hospital. Immediately after the chopping incident Subesh Mohabir was seen drinking what investigators suspected to be poison. He was rushed to the hospital shortly after his wife. He succumbed several hours later.
