A young woman was blindfolded and sexually assaulted in her home by an intruder who claimed someone had sent him to kill her.
Police said the attack occurred on May 16 in Moruga. The assailant entered the victim's home by removing three louvre blades from a window.
The 26-year-old woman told police she had retired to bed around 11 pm, but was awakened shortly afterwards by a man's voice.
"Somebody send me to kill yuh but ah wouldn't kill yuh," the assailant told her.
She could see nothing as the room was dark.
The victim started to scream, but the man grabbed her shoulder, slapped her across the face and threatened to kill her.
"Doh make no noise before I kill yuh," he instructed.
Afraid for her life, she obeyed him. He used a piece of cloth to blindfold her, removed her clothing, then raped and sodomised her. He also forced her to perform oral sex.
After the almost hour-long ordeal, the assailant jammed an object against her neck and ordered her not to move as he fled.
Investigations are ongoing.
