Just a week after welcoming his 12th child, a Princes Town father was murdered in a roadside attack near his mother’s home on Sunday night.

Forty-year-old Sherwin Balkaran, of Malgretoute Village, collapsed at the corner of Railway Road and M1 Tasker Road, after being stabbed in the neck during an argument.

Police said around 5.30 pm, Balkaran was chatting outside a shop with two men when an argument broke out. One of the men pulled a knife and slashed him before both suspects fled, leaving him bleeding on the ground.
