Colin Rodney

The results of DNA tests to determine whether charred remains recently found in a torched car are those of Colin Rodney Jr, the key witness in an ongoing murder case, could be known within a month or less, Director of the Guyana Forensic Science Laboratory (GFSL) Delon France has said.

France, when contacted by Sunday Stabroek yesterday, explained that the timeframe for the results of testing of any samples submitted to the lab for testing is usually one month.

He, however, noted that it can be ready before.
