BREAKING… Jealous husband murders wife’s lover

By Michael Jordan

A jealous ex-prisoner has confessed to murdering 25-year-old Berbice welder Joshua Hardatt, who had started an affair with the suspect’s wife while he was incarcerated.

Hardatt’s body, with multiple stab wounds and head injuries, was found on Wednesday, May 22, in his Toyota Premio, PAD 1612, at Auchlyne Cultivating Dam, East Berbice-Corentyne.

He was last seen alive on Tuesday, May 21, when he left his Lot 371 Bloomfield Village, Corentyne home in his vehicle.

Diligent investigations by officers from Region Three and Region Six, led to the arrest of a 31-year-old labourer, who was recently released from prison.

Police have reportedly recovered the suspected murder weapon as well as the alleged killer’s bloodstained clothing.

BIG Smith News Watch understands that the suspect told investigators that he found out that Hardatt had started an affair with his wife while he was in prison.

The spouse reportedly then went to Region Three (Essequibio Islands-West Demerara) with Hardatt.

But last Tuesday, the suspect managed to lure Hardatt to an area in Auchlyne, where he beat Hardatt into a state of unconsciousness.

With his injured rival still in the vehicle, the husband allegedly drove to the backlands at Auchlyne Cultivating Dam, where he inflicted the fatal stab wounds.

Sources told BIG Smith News Watch that the alleged killer then travelled to Region Three, reportedly in search of his spouse.

Luckily, Region Three detectives received information that led to the apprehension of the suspect.

Police have also detained the wife as investigations continue.
