PME confirms 90-yr-old raped and murdered

Millicent Prince-Cummings

A post-mortem examination of the body of 90-year-old Millicent Prince-Cummings yesterday revealed that she sustained blunt trauma to the head and was also sexually assaulted, Crime Chief Seelall Persaud said.

Persaud told Stabroek News yesterday that no one has yet been arrested and that police are pursuing several lines of inquiry. He said that a condom packet was found near the woman’s body but he could not say conclusively that it connected to the crime. He said the condom packet was taken to the crime lab for processing.

According to Persaud, investigators are looking to see if drug addicts in the area may have been responsible for the murder.
