Inspector testifies gun and ammo could have been planted

Inspector Carlton Charles on Friday testified that the ammunition that was found in a green and black canvas-like bag under a wardrobe in Oliver Hinckson’s room and a pistol found in another room could have been put there by any one of the military officers who was on the joint operation.

Inspector Charles, who was on the witness stand for the second time, was being cross-examined by attorney-at-law Nigel Hughes before Magistrate Gordon Gilhuys during the continuation of the trial into the gun and ammunition case against Hinckson, a former Guyana Defence Force Lieutenant.
