The man accused of murdering popular Linden businessman, Albert “Bolo” Joseph, of Bolo’s Variety and Furniture Store, of Sunflower Street, Wismar, Linden, appeared before Magistrate Ann McLennan on Tuesday.
He was also charged with robbery.
Colin Collison, known as ‘Juvenile’, 18, of 148 South Better Hope, East Coast Demerara, on January 3, 2011, at Sunflower Street, Wismar, Linden allegedly murdered the businessman, in the course of robbing him of one gold chain and a sum of cash. He reportedly shot Joseph. The businessman succumbed to the injuries sustained three days later. Previously, the robbery and murder charges were filed as separate offences, however with the amendment the two offences will be treated simultaneously.
The robbery charge was indictable and Collison was not required to plead. The matter has been made returnable on June 29.
Collison was also charged with two additional counts of robbery under arms. On January 7, last, while armed with a gun, he robbed Nigel Muss of one gold chain valued $160,000. On the same day Collison allegedly robbed Rajendra Temaul of $250,000 in cash.
He pleaded not guilty to both charges. Both of the matters were adjourned to June 29.
