THE Paradise, Essequibo Coast man who reportedly murdered his 24-year-old wife last Saturday and later attempted suicide is likely to face a murder charge if he makes it out of hospital alive.Vishnu Narine, 25 years, reportedly stabbed Malini Narine to death following a domestic dispute and then used the same knife to inflict a wound to his neck.
The incident took place at the couple’s Paradise, Essequibo home. Police Commander Kevin Adonis said yesterday that based on information received, the couple had a heated argument and Narine advanced to Malini with the kitchen knife and stabbed her.
When police investigators arrived at the scene, they found Vishnu lying on his wife’s body and after it was found that he was alive, they rushed him to the Suddie Hospital where doctors are trying to save his life, as he remains under police guard.
The man who is reportedly an alcoholic and his wife were home alone at the time of the incident.
