A CARAPO man initially indicted for the 2017 murder of his father will spend the next six years and four months in prison. Lennox Self was sentenced by Justice Nalini Singh after he pleaded guilty to the manslaughter of Nezam “Nisam” Hosein during a violent confrontation at a home in Carapo.
Hosein, 48, was stabbed to death on March 24 following a confrontation at his Jokhan Trace, Pascal Lane home. Hosein's son, Lennox Self, 30, was charged with the murder.
Self entered plea deal discussions with the State in October. The judge accepted that Self acted under substantial provocation after Hosein attacked him with a mortar and pestle, triggering a fatal struggle.
