Travis McDougall, who is currently serving a 25-year sentence for the shooting death of businessman, Ashok Raghoo, is of the view that the judge who conducted his trial made implications to the jury that he (McDougall) needed to prove his case to them.
In his challenge before the Guyana Court of Appeal, the Appellant is also contending that the sentence imposed upon him is too excessive, when compared with what he described as comparable cases to his.
