PI into Robb Street woman’s death to commence soon

Apr 01, 2012 News

 

 

The Preliminary Inquiry (PI) into the death of Robb Street resident, 72-year-old Clementine Fiedtkou-Parris is expected to commence on a date that will be given at the next hearing of the matter scheduled for April 23 by Magistrate Sueanna Lovell.
Four men had been detained for the murder of Parris. They were accused of being hired by persons unknown to murder the elderly woman, allegedly for her property. It is believed that the woman had developed enemies over a house situated at Lot 42 Robb Street Georgetown.
It is understood that investigations are still ongoing into the matter while persons had not been identified as masterminds in the plot to end Parris’s life.
It is also understood that lawyers had not been presenting themselves in court. It is however understood that the men’s lawyer had asked for a paper committal in the matter and that the file be sent to the Director of Public Prosecution (DPP) for advice.
Orin Hinds, 35, of Burnham Boulevard, Mocha, East Bank Demerara; Cleon Hinds, 34, of 23 Middle Road, Albouystown; Kevin October, 29, of Second Street, Agricola, East Bank Demerara; and Roy Jacobs, 34 of Evans Street, Charlestown; were remanded late last year for the murder of Parris.
It is alleged that the four men conspired to kill Parris. But on the day in question, it is alleged that two of them climbed the steps leading to Parris’s house and requested an audience with her, asking her brother who was sitting on the step to call her.
When Parris reportedly heard persons asking for her, she went to the door where the men opened fire, riddling the woman’s body with bullets. She was hit several times. Her elderly brother had allegedly been tossed aside when he tried to attack the suspects. The men then made good their escape via a waiting car.
Parris was rushed to the city hospital, but died a short while after the shooting.
It was said that the accused men were paid $400,000 to take Parris’s life. The woman was said to have been in a heated court battle over the Robb Street property.
