Essequibo man wanted by Police for 8 years nabbed on Friday

Having evaded the Police for the past eight years, 26-year-old Nicklus Singh of Abrams Zuil, Essequibo Coast, Region Two (Pomeroon-Supenaam) has been arrested.

Wanted for causing the death of a woman in 2014, Singh was finally arrested on Friday.
Singh was reportedly charged with the offence of causing death by dangerous driving after an accident which occurred along the Annandale Public Road on the Essequibo Coast on August 12, 2014.
Based on reports received, he had collided his vehicle with another motor car being driven by Chandanie Das, a former Manager of Courts Guyana Inc and late resident of La Union, Essequibo Coast.
Following that accident, a file was prepared and sent to the Office of the Director of Public Prosecution, and it was advised that an inquest be held into the matter. The inquest saw 10 witnesses testifying, and it was subsequently found that Singh was criminally responsible for the death of Das.
Singh was charged, and was expected to be arraigned in the Suddie Magistrate’s Court on November 19, 2015, but he never showed up. As such, a warrant was issued for his arrest.
He had ever since managed to evade the Police. Now that he is arrested, his charge would be re-instituted and he would be placed before the Charity Magistrate in court on Monday.
