KOMAL Persaud and his mother, Renee Persaud, originally indicted for throwing a corrosive substance on Navin Seepersaud with intent to murder him, are now facing two more counts on the indictment.

Resulting from a ruling by Justice Roxanne George yesterday, the accused have also been charged with inflicting on and causing grievous bodily harm to the victim.
