Police prevent convicted wife killer from taking death leap
JUSTICE Navindra Singh has sentenced wife-killer Kevin Verwayne to 78 years’ imprisonment after an Assizes jury found him guilty of murdering his 20-year-old reputed wife, Suzy. In an apparent suicide bid, the 25-year-old labourer of Pouderoyen, West Bank, Demerara, attempted to leap from the court’s gallery to the ground 40 feet below, but his attempt was foiled by Police. One day in March, 2011, Kevin, who normally used to threaten his lover that he would take her life for being unfaithful to him, hired a taxi and took her to a canal at Houston, EBD. On their way, he reminded her of her deeds, then he hugged her by the neck and jumped into the canal with her, where he kept squeezing her neck and holding her beneath the water until she became lifeless. Thereafter, he placed some trash over her body and left for home, where he told his relatives what had happened.
