Mar 11, 2011 News

Two more witnesses were called upon to give evidence as the murder trial continued yesterday for two men who are accused of killing Audi Peters at Grove, East Bank Demerara, in January 2008.
On trial for the murder are Jainarine Persaud, 42, and Andy Jagmohan, 26. Presiding over the matter is Justice Winston Patterson. State prosecutors Rhondell Weever and Teshanna James are presenting the case, while the defendants are represented by attorneys Khemraj Ramjattan and Neil Parsaran.
Yesterday, during the morning session, the state called Mohamed Ali, who was subsequently cross examined by Ramjattan.
In the afternoon, police officer Shizram Nurgyaya was the next witness to testify. He tendered the post mortem examination results to the court. The matter was then adjourned.
Prosecutor James in her opening address did not disclose a motive for the killing, but promised to lead witnesses who would show that the killing was deliberate – with an intention to kill or to cause grievous bodily harm.
Police Constable, Jason Kyte, who is stationed at the Grove Police Station, testified that relative to a report of the murder committed on Audi Peters on January 28, 2008, he assisted in the investigations.
Civilian witness David Persaud testified that on the night of the murder, he was aroused by a noise. Persaud said that he ran outside and saw a man lying on the road in a pool of blood.
The man appeared to be unconscious. He took the injured man to the Diamond Diagnostic Centre.
