A West Coast Berbice grandmother was raped and strangled sometime between Saturday night and Sunday morning and a relative has been arrested for the grisly crime.
The death of Vaulda Britton, 78, called ‘Aunty ‘Vie,’ of Hopetown, did not arouse much suspicion until her son noticed marks of violence after viewing her body on Monday. An autopsy later confirmed that she had been raped and strangled. Police yesterday said a man was arrested.
Stabroek News was told that the man is a relative who had volunteered to spend the night at her house
