Sean Dos Santos and Stephon Howard yesterday both said that they are innocent of the charges levelled against them over the shooting and killing Abdool Fazal Saheed during a robbery at Freeman Street, East La Penitence just over four years ago.
The jointly-charged men were at the time leading their respective defences in unsworn testimony before Justice Jo-Ann Barlow and a jury at the High Court in Demerara following the close of the prosecution’s case.
They are accused of murdering Saheed in the wee hours of September 24, 2017 at Lot 194 Freeman Street in the furtherance of a robbery.
