Hameraj Rambachan walked out of the Supreme Court, a free man yesterday after he was acquitted of murder by Justice Brassington Reynolds. Rambachan was accused of knifing to death his “one time lover’s mother, Rajpattie Jagroop, back in 2009.
Justice Reynolds yesterday, upheld the no case submission of Defence Attorney Kim Kyte -John. Mrs. Kyte- John in association with Ms Faye Ann Barker represented the accused.
Rambachan was 22 years old when he was taken into custody for the murder. He wept as he fled the court house. He declined to speak to the media.
The no case submission outlined that the state‘s arguments were weak, in regards to the identification parade, a prima facie case was not made out and the High Court evidence conflicted with that which was produced at the Magistrate ‘s court.
Rambachan reportedly stabbed Jagroop, of Zeeburg, West Coast Demerara, several times about the body. She collapsed shortly after. The woman was subsequently pronounced dead on arrival at the Leonora Cottage Hospital.
The woman’s 17-year-old daughter, Basmattie Seswankar, was also chopped to the head. Rambachan was also charged in relation to her injuries. He is currently on $150,000 bail for the wounding with intent charge.
Justice Reynolds ordered Rambachan to lodge his passport and report to the Vreed en Hoop police station every week, pending the hearing.
