A disgusted Magistrate Tejnarine Ramroop pulled no punches yesterday as he blamed excessive alcohol and drug use on the many cases of domestic violence in Berbice.He said that the situation has reached crisis proportions and that the problem is sickening.The magistrate made the remarks while presiding at the Albion Magistrate’s Court in a case where a man is accused of wounding a friend’s ex-wife.It is alleged that the incident occurred after the victim and a group of other women kicked down the man’s gate and barged into his yard.“We are living in a society in which people are becoming violent against each other, both women and men,” Magistrate Ramroop said.“The women are equally or sometimes more violent towards the men-folk. The men (husbands) are afraid to speak out or come to court because they are afraid, of what society would say.”He said that he and another senior member of the bar had conducted a survey and found that a high percentage of the root cause of cases on theCorentyne is caused by alcohol When this newspaper was present in court most of the matters that were called pertained to some form of domestic violence and in all of them one, both or some of the parties indicated that they were drinking,Steve Yzerman Red Wings Jersey, before or during the incident.Wondering aloud the magistrate queried “What is going on in this place?”Magistrate Tejnarine RamroopHe challenged the media and other social organisations to get on the Corentyne and do more work.Stating that on every court day,Ryan McDonagh Rangers Jersey, he handles close to or over 100 cases and as many as 15 new ones are called.Challenging the police and other relevant authorities to do more to deal with the scourge, the magistrate said that both males and female are guilty alike of consuming alcohol and then going home and causing problems.He said that police must stop taking sides and charge whoever is responsible.“The women are as guilty as the men. It’s like a phenomenon on the Corentyne Coast and is like nobody seems to care,” he remarked.Continuing his broadside, he called on the authorities to ban certain music that deals with rum.“Rum and more rum. People are taking advantage of the vulnerable, especially in the sugar industry. Whenever there is a payout, quickly there is some show organised and we in the magistracy quiver the next day on the number of matters that are brought to court.The crime rate also escalates. The music, the shows and alcohol abuse are destroying the fabric of the society and something should be done fast.”He took a swipe at the number of off licence liquor stores that have mushroomed all over and queried why persons are being allowed to consume alcohol on these premises.“They should be arrested and charged for breaking the law.”It is alleged that on 17 July at Nigg Settlement Corentyne Berbice, Deonarine Raj, called ‘Walker; of Lot 603 Rampoor Corentyne, unlawfully and maliciously wounded Maywattie Tillack called ‘Sherry’.The court was told that on the day in question, Tillack was following her former boyfriend when she saw him enter his friend’s yard.  She had suspected he had another woman and was meeting her there.She then organised a group of women who then broke down Raj’s gate and barged into his yard as they called on those inside to fight.It is reported that Raj then wounded Tillack in his quest to get them off of his premises. The woman produced a medical which stated that she received two chops,Andrei Markov Canadiens Jersey, one to the head and another to the shoulder. The matter was reported and Raj was arrested and charged.In court, Raj denied that he wounded the woman and stated that he only asked them to leave his yard.“They been so plenty that she must be fall down and knock she self”, he remarked.His friend was also in court.The men were reportedly under the influence of alcohol at the time.Turning to the prosecution the magistrate asked why the women were never charged for damage and barging into the man’s yard.“Where are the women, why are they not in court today?” the agitated magistrate queried.“This is what I am talking about; the laws are there for everybody. I am one magistrate that will not take sides.”Raj was sent on self bail and is to return to court on Tuesday 31st August.*************************One held for Sophia boy’s murderOne person is presently in custody as investigators intensify the search for the person(s), responsible for the murder of seven-year-old Sophia resident Dacwaun Sutherland.Dacwaun SutherlandSutherland was found floating in a canal in the Sophia area one day after he was reported missing by his mother Zon Parks.A post mortem report revealed that the boy was sodomised and was probably submerged in a canal until he drowned.Police officials yesterday confirmed that a 24-year-old man was taken into custody on Saturday.The officials said that the suspect’s name surfaced during the investigation as a person who the child was last seen with.Kaieteur News understands that the suspect has been vehemently denying that he had anything to do with the child’s death.The child’s mother Zon Parks was adamant that her only child had to be slain in broad daylight.The woman still pleads for those in the community who have any related knowledge to come forward with any information.The child’s body was found in a canal in ‘C’ Field, Sophia.*************************Three charged with Pomeroon farmer’s murderThree persons, including a husband and wife,Tomas Tatar Red Wings Jersey, were yesterday not required to plead to the indictable of offence of murder when they appeared in the Georgetown Magistrates’ Court.Frank Henry, 39, and his wife Josephine Henry, 41, along with their family friend Trevor Abrams 41, are accused of murdering Victor Williams on July 22,Anton Stralman Lightning Jersey, at Pomeroon.
