The man, 53-year-old Colin Josiah, of Lot 22 North Sophia, is accused of driving his vehicle in a dangerous manner to cause the death of Nazeem Juman, on February 14, last.
He pleaded not guilty to the charge and was represented by attorney at law Sase Gunraj. The lawyer in his bail application told the court that Josiah is employed as a manager at Federal Management Systems for over 10 years.
Gunraj explained to the court that Josiah is married with 11 children. The lawyer said that his client has no pervious convictions and poses no flight risk.

Bail was refused by the magistrate and Josiah is expected to make another court appearance on March 16.
