Raul Thomas

A 47-year-old minibus conductor is now a remanded prisoner on an attempted murder charge after he allegedly stabbed his partner during an argument, in which she was also choked and burned with boiling water.

Raul Thomas of Lot 365 North Ruimveldt was not required to plead to the indictable charge after it was read to him by Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan in the Georgetown Magistrates’ Court One.

The charge states that on December 8th, 2019, at North Ruimveldt, Georgetown, with intent to commit murder, Thomas inflicted grievous bodily harm upon the woman.
