Water Street businessman Rondy Jagdeo was today freed on a charge of the murder of close friend Kirk Davis, who was riddled to death with bullets in front of his home on September 3rd, 2013.
He was freed at the Georgetown Magistrate’s Court at the end of the preliminary inquiry as witnesses in the case were not turning up.
An autopsy performed on Davis found that he was shot 16 times. Residents of the area had recalled seeing a silver-coloured Premio car pull up in front of Davis’s house. Davis entered the vehicle to speak to the occupants. It was also reported that the suspect shot Davis until there were no bullets left in the gun. Davis, wounded and bleeding, was thrown out of the vehicle and the killer fled in the car. Davis was then picked up from his bridge and rushed to the Georgetown Public Hospital, where he died.
On October 28, nearly two months after the murder, Jagdeo turned himself in to the police.
