Dad Faces Manslaughter Charge In Teen Daughter’s Death

By Newsroom

The father of 15 year old Alliyah Alexander is due to appear before a Couva Magistrate today,  charged with manslaughter in connection with the teenager’s death.

The girl was rushed to the Couva District Hospital exactly one week ago, unconscious after allegedly being beaten and falling down a flight of stairs.

An autopsy report later showed Alliyah suffered blunt force trauma, leading to 36 year old David Alexander, a Corporal attached to the Trinidad and Tobago Defence Force, being charged.

The accused was arrested by PC Ramnarine, of the Homicide Bureau of Investigations (HBI) Region Three, in connection with the incident last Thursday, and was formally charged on Tuesday morning.

Investigations were supervised by Supt. Dhilpaul and Insp. Maharaj, all of HBI Region Three.
