The police in Berbice are still on the hunt for the unemployed man who allegedly murdered his teen wife at the Number Two Village, East Canje, Berbice on Saturday.
However, relatives of the deceased, Parbattie Lakhpal, 16, believes that the suspect, Ryan Singh, 25, formerly of Eccles, East Bank Demerara, may have fled to neighbouring Suriname, since he once worked as a “trader”, who brought “expensive alcohol from Suriname”. In yesterday’s news item Lakhpal’s age was given as 17. Her mother yesterday said she was 16.
