In what is not a new, but extremely rare occurrence, bail has been granted to a murder accused here in Guyana.
Though committed to stand trial for the capital offence back in 2020, Adoni Bowen’s attorney Dexter Todd in a release to the press yesterday said that his client’s name never appeared for trial in any of the Criminal Sessions of the High Court since.
Todd said that as a result, he made an application to the High Court on December 16th of last year for the accused to be admitted to bail pending his trial.
