Berbice man on trial for abduction
The abduction trial of a Berbice man began on Friday in the Berbice High Court, before Justice James Bovell-Drakes and a mixed jury.
However after the jury was sworn in, the matter was adjourned to Tuesday because the lawyer for the accused was not present.
The man, Shafraz Subratalli, indicated to the court that Attorney at Law Kim Kyte was his counsel and that she was out of the jurisdiction and would be present on Monday.
He is on trial for abducting a girl under 16 on December 15, last, in Berbice.
Justice Drakes adjourned the matter to give Subratalli enough time to consult with his lawyer.
Attorney at Law Rondell Weaver is presenting the case for the state.
