Labourer remanded for felonious wounding

Charged: Navindra Latchman also known as “Rockey,”

A 29-year-old labourer from Queenstown Village, Essequibo Coast, Region Two (Pomeroon-Supenaam) has been remanded to prison after being charged with felonious wounding.
Navindra Latchman, also known as “Rockey,” appeared before Magistrate Tamieka Clarke at the Suddie Magistrate’s Court on Tuesday. The charge, laid under Section 57(a) of the Criminal Law (Offences) Act, Chapter 8:01, alleges that Latchman inflicted serious injuries upon Khemraj Ramesh, a 41-year-old labourer from the same village.
It is alleged that the incident occurred on Saturday at Queenstown Public Road, Essequibo Coast. Latchman has since denied the offence. The prosecution objected to bail and he was remanded to prison. The case has been adjourned to February 11.
