-for murder of Lusignan cosmetologist
Lennox Wayne called ‘Two Colours’ and his alleged accomplice Melroy Doris, who are accused of the
July 10, 2014 murder of Lusignan, East Bank Demerara cosmetologist, Ashmini Singh, are set to undergo another trial in this session of the Demerara Assizes.
Among the 216 cases set to be heard before the three judges presiding in the October assizes, the case against Wayne and Doris for the offence of murder is listed at number 14 on a document by the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP).
It was Justice Jo Ann Barlow who announced in May, last, that the two murder accused will have to undergo another trial after the jury was unable to reach a common verdict in relation to the two, for the offence, when the case was called earlier this year.
Ashmini Singh was shot once to the neck moments after she disembarked a minibus along the Lusignan Railway, Embankment, East Coast Demerara. On the day of the incident, her assailant reportedly exited a burgundy-coloured motorcar, whipped out a gun, shot the teen, then took away her cell phone and fled.
Wayne and Doris, a taxi driver, were subsequently arrested and charged.
