Man pleads guilty to murdering Cuyuni shop owner

Former vendor, Nathan Stoute, is now awaiting sentencing for the 2014 killing of Cuyuni shop owner Bibi Sheniza Khan-Bhola who was stabbed during a robbery at her business premises.

Stoute at his arraignment on Monday before the High Court at Suddie, pleaded guilty to murdering the woman between February 26 and 27, 2014, at Rock Creek, Cuyuni River.

Justice Jo-Ann Barlow has, however, deferred sentencing to December 7th to facilitate the preparation and presentation of probation and other social impact reports.
