…expected back in Guyana to face murder charge
The month of November started off with news that Guyanese Philanthropist Marcus Bisram is expected back in Guyana to face a murder charge after he lost an extradition challenge in a New York court. Bisram is wanted in Guyana for the murder of a Berbice carpenter.
District Judge, Kiyo A Matsumoto presided over the case on Tuesday, where she upheld that there was sufficient evidence for Bisram to be repatriated to Guyana. Judge of the Eastern District, Peggy Kuo had similarly ruled that the evidence was enough, and an extradition order was signed.
On October 31, 2016, Faiyaz Narinedatt was beaten and ran over with a motorcar at the alleged orders of Bisram, after the carpenter declined sexual advances that were made by the overseas-based Guyanese. The body of 27-year-old Narinedatt was later found on the Number 70 Village Public Road on the Corentyne. Bisram, as well as five alleged henchmen, is alleged to have conspired to commit the act.
