Man awaits sentencing for cutlass wounding

Leroy La Fleur is expected to learn his fate next week after he pleaded guilty on Thursday at the High Court in Berbice to carrying out an attack on a man using a cutlass.

La Fleur pleaded guilty to a charge of felonious wounding following an attack on Suraj Azeez that he carried out on September 11th, 2019.

Prosecutor Tuanna Hardy yesterday told the court that Azeez, and La Fleur are known to each other and on the day in question the two got into a fight; Hardy then stated that La Fleur began to inflict several chops on Azeez.
