Rawle McPherson, 45, of Victoria, East Coast Demerara and Mohanie Mohabir, 43, of Corentyne, Berbice, were charged with the murder when they appeared at the Georgetown Magistrate’s Courts where Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan read the indictable charge to them.
The charge states that between December 21 and December 23, 2020, at the St Sidwell’s Anglican Church, Vlissengen Road, Lodge, Georgetown, they murdered George Chuck-A-Sang.
