Chopped Cottage man still critical

Deopaul Manie called ‘Bull’, who was chopped in the head by his neighbour last Sunday, is still in a critical condition in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of the Georgetown Public Hospital (GPH).

According to a relative, the man is attached to a life support machine and is not responding to them. The relative explained that they were told by the doctor that Manie’s condition has not improved in any way.

Last Sunday Manie was chopped by his neighbour, Kenrick Chisholm, who later hanged himself. Manie and his reputed wife, Norawattie Khedoo, were consuming alcohol along with Chisholm at their house.
It is alleged that Chisholm later sexually assaulted a female relative of the couple. He was later confronted by the couple. A police press release had said that Chisholm was carrying a cutlass which he used to chop Manie to the head and Khedoo on the left foot.

When the police checked Chisholm’s home while carrying out investigations, he was found hanging from a length of polythene rope in his Cottage, Mahaicony home.
