The driver who allegedly struck down 42-year-old Azaad Khan along the Blankenburg Public Road was last Wednesday charged with causing death by dangerous driving.
Twenty-eight-year-old Vicky Balgobin of Lot 258 Area ‘G’, De Willem, West Coast Demerara (WCD) was charged with causing death by dangerous driving, failing to stop after an accident and failing to render assistance to an injured person.
Balgobin who appeared at the Leonora Magistrate’s Court denied the first charge and was remanded to prison. He pleaded guilty to the other two charges and was fined $40,000 or 12 weeks imprisonment.
