Guyana-born US citizen Ramdhanie Persaud, called ‘Prackash’ or ‘Prack’, was remanded yesterday by
Magistrate Adela Nagamootoo for allegedly murdering his wife Bibi Shameena Deen.
The accused appeared in the New Amsterdam Magistrate’s Court.
Persaud will have to return to court on May 9 when the matter will be transferred to the Reliance Magistrate’s Court.
The accused had turned himself over to police earlier this week while accompanied by his lawyer, Attorney at Law Mursaleine Bacchus.
Persaud is alleged to have shot his wife dead on Tuesday March 20 at their Canefield, East Canje, Berbice home.
Deen, who operated a shop at the home, was found with bullet wounds to the head and chest.
The couple’s teenage son had allegedly heard his mother’s cries at around 23:00 hrs but found the bedroom locked when he tried to go to her assistance.
A postmortem performed revealed that she was shot at close range in the head and chest. Cause of death was given as shock and haemorrhage due to gunshot injuries, laceration to the brain and a fractured skull.
Two months ago, Persaud was placed on one-year bond after he had been charged for assaulting his wife
