Prime Min­is­ter Kam­la Per­sad-Bisses­sar says she is deeply sad­dened by the death of Unit­ed Na­tion­al Con­gress coun­cil­lor Romona Vic­tor, adding that the tragedy re­in­forces the im­por­tance of reach­ing out for help.

Po­lice said Vic­tor, 36, and her hus­band, Rod­ney Ram­sumair, 45, were found dead in their Siparia home on Sun­day in what in­ves­ti­ga­tors be­lieve was a mur­der sui­cide.

The fol­low­ing is the state­ment is­sued by Per­sad-Bisses­sar this morn­ing.
