It is alleged that Ganga Krishna, 74, of Lot 11 North Road and Avishkar Bissoon, 24, of Lot 1 Sheriff Street, Georgetown, murdered the two girls in late 2014, by setting their home on fire.

The Rozarios perished in the fire at their home while their father, Hilrod Thomas, 63, sustained fatal injuries and died in hospital days later. During the continuation of the PI before Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan, Police Prosecutor Neville Jeffers on Tuesday entered into evidence two original post-mortem reports for Clarissa, 14 and Theresa, 12, along with two other documents. Corporal Prem Narine was then cross-examined by attorney Nigel Hughes.

Three other witnesses are expected to be called at the next hearing for cross-examination.

The matter will be heard again on November 13.
