TWO suspects are likely to be charged this week as the investigations continue into the murder of an Albouystown businesswoman, who was robbed and strangled to death on May, 2, 2019.

An autopsy conducted on the body of businesswoman, Nalinie Persaud, revealed that she died due to compression to the neck and blunt trauma to the head.

Police said that two of the bandits, who were armed with handguns, had attacked the woman and when they escaped, the businesswoman’s lifeless body was discovered with a rope, which was used to strangle her, tied around the neck.

Police confirmed that cash and jewellery were carted off by the bandits who ransacked the premises. They gained entry by removing a board from the northern wall of the lower flat of the house. The victim’s husband was assaulted and taken out of the bedroom into the lower flat of the premises, which housed a grocery shop, where he was bound to a chair and duct-taped.
