Sophia man faces attempted murder, robbery charges
A Sophia resident has been remanded on an attempted murder charge.
Darrel Gilkes, 22, of Lot 19 Block E, Sophia, faced Magistrate Sueanna Lovell yesterday accused of discharging a loaded gun with the intent to murder Seon Manderson. Gilkes is also facing a robbery charge, accused of relieving Colin Fraser of a gold chain worth $90,000 in Georgetown on April 2, last.
Gilkes’ Attorney Leslie Sobers requested bail at an affordable sum. However the prosecution objected to bail based on the serious nature of the attempted murder charge. The prosecution then explained that the objection is based on the fact that the victim is still hospitalised and is still in an unstable condition. The matter is to be recalled on April 24.
