Attempted murder accused remanded

Oct 22, 2010 News

Magistrate Priya Beharry yesterday refused to grant bail to a man accused of stabbing his friend six times.
Ryan O’Neil Barker was not required to plead to the indictable offence of attempting to commit murder.
The allegation was that Barker attempted to murder Terrence Jaikissoon, on October 18.
Police Prosecutor Lionel Harvey yesterday told the court that the virtual complainant and the defendant were engaged in a heated argument. According to Harvey, Barker whipped out a knife and began stabbing Jaikissoon about the body.
He was stabbed six times and had to be rushed to the Georgetown Hospital.
The prosecutor said that the victim had to be rushed to operating theatre, where his condition was listed as critical.
He asked for bail to be refused and a date for statements set. That application was granted by the magistrate.
Barker was remanded and is expected to make another court appearance on October 27.
