Man wanted over De Kinderen murder

The police today issued a wanted bulletin for Chris Carew over the murder last Sunday of Lindsford Kenwayne Duguid at De Kinderen, West Coast Demerara.

The police in a statement said that the fatal attack occurred at De Kinderen Housing Scheme, West Coast Demerara between 3 am and 3:45 am. On Saturday night, at around 10 pm, police said Duguid visited a home in the Scheme in search of the Venezuelan. Duguid was informed by the landlord that the woman was not at home. The landlord told the police that at about 3.30 am, he heard loud screams in his yard and upon enquiring he saw Duguid pulling the woman by her hair. At the same time, he told the police, one of the suspects (another female Venezuelan national) held on to Duguid’s waist from behind him. The landlord said he rushed to the area and saw Duguid and two of the suspects fighting in a drain.

One of the suspects, who had a knife in her hand, was stabbing at Duguid’s leg while a male Venezuelan suspect was holding Duguid around his neck. Minutes later the third suspect appeared with a cutlass and began to chop Duguid about his body; one suspect was then heard asking for a rope. Another suspect reportedly tied Duguid’s legs with a cord which the suspects apparently secured from a clothes line, the police said.

Duguid’s body was later removed from the drain where injuries were seen, examined and documented, the police said. The body bore multiple chops to the head and a cord was seen tied around his legs and neck.
