As the drama continues to unfold in the court proceedings of the Faiyaz Narinedatt murder case, a prominent attorney and former magistrate found himself in a sticky situation after he was arrested yesterday at the Springlands Magistrate Court.
Attorney-at-law Chandra Sohan was taken into custody at the Springlands Police Station for allegedly attempting to pervert the course of justice, in relation to the case. He was arrested after the morning session was adjourned.
Five accused – Orlando Dickie,, Diodath Datt, Niran Yacoob, Radesh Motie and Harri Paul Parsram – all appeared yesterday at the Springlands Court before Magistrate Rabindranauth Singh. They were represented by Attorney-at-law Sanjeev Datadin and stood before a prosecution represented by Attorney Stacy Goodings.
Meanwhile, thus far, three witnesses who would have provided statements to the police, were taken back to the scene of the crime, and were recorded (video) recounting and explaining in detail where the beating took place, to the point where Narinedatt’s body was dumped. As such, given the nature and gravity of the crime along with the importance of evidence provided in the case, the witnesses who would have given the evidence in the presence of the police and on camera are expected to not go against what they would have given.
According to a source if they (the witnesses) do go against the statements they will be charged and placed before the courts for Purgery, a non-bailable offence. The said video recording will be presented in court and once presented, it will show that the witnesses would have lied if their statements conflict the initial statements given by them.
The teenaged star witness who recently alleged that he was poisoned by a relative of Bisram has since been discharged from the hospital and was present at the court proceedings for the morning session but subsequently left after complaining that he was not feeling well.
The PI continues today with four witnesses on the prosecutions side expected to take the stand in court.
Faiyaz Narinedatt’s battered and bloodied body was found lying lifeless along the Number 70 Public Road after an evening of “partying” at the home of well known overseas-based Philanthropist Marcus Bisram. It was reported that at the gathering between the 30th October and the 1st November, Narinedatt rejected sexual advances by Bisram, who reportedly ordered Dickie, Datt, Yacoob, Motie and Parsram to “deal with him”. Narinedatt was allegedly beaten by the men and dumped on the public road to make it seem as though the carpenter was a victim of a hit-and-run. However things quickly unraveled after relatives of Narinedatt insisted that their loved one was murdered.
Bisram was arrested in the United States months after the murder and is currently before the courts there, facing possible extradition.
