Ralph Jones, the father of one of the prisoners who escaped from the Mazaruni Prison a week ago was yesterday remanded to prison after he was charged with providing assistance to them, including a change of clothing after the incident.
Sixty-year-old Jones, a boat captain of Fourth Avenue, Bartica appeared before Magistrate Crystal Lambert at the Vreed-en-Hoop Magistrate’s Court.
He was charged with four counts of being an accessory after the fact to escaping from lawful custody. Jones was not required to plead to the charges and was remanded to prison.
