The Court case that had been ongoing following the tragic death of 65-year-old Donna Punch, a resident of Alness Village, Corentyne, Berbice, was recently dismissed following a settlement of $4.4 million.
According to Police reports, Donna and her husband, Leroy Punch were on the Alness Public Road heading to a church service on October 5, 2025, when the tragedy unfolded.
He pleaded not guilty when the charge was presented to him by Magistrate Tuanna Hardy in the Whim Magistrate’s Court.
After the court confirmed the legitimacy of the settlement, Leroy was called to the witness stand, where he affirmed his acceptance of the agreement.
With the settlement accepted and evidence provided, Magistrate Hardy officially discontinued the matter, resulting in the charges against Seeram being dropped.
