A paper committal will now be a part of the court proceedings for the two men who allegedly robbed and murdered 36-year-old Garfield Newton last Christmas Eve.
The murder charge which was brought against 25-year-old Darren Baley called ‘Fifty’ of 3091 Recht-Door-Zee, Parfaite Harmonie, West Bank Demerara (WBD) and Judah Vickery, 24, called ‘Culture’ of Bella Dam, Pouderoyen, Squatting Area, WBD, was called on Tuesday before Senior Magistrate Leron Daly at the Georgetown Magistrate’s Court.
During the court hearing, the prosecution and the defence attorney had made a decision to continue the preliminary inquiry via a paper committal where the witnesses’ statements and documented evidence would be tendered to the court to be inventoried and marked as exhibits.
