MURDERED: Envil Pollard
Twenty-seven-year-old Marlon Callender denied killing fisherman Envil Trevor Pollard, called ‘Elvis’ or ‘Rastaman’, when he appeared yesterday before Justice Sandil Kissoon at the High Court in Georgetown.
A jury was also empanelled yesterday to consider the evidence in the trial of Callender which is scheduled to commence next week Monday.
It is alleged that on January 9, 2015 at McDoom, East Bank Demerara, Callender murdered Pollard. Representing Callender is Attorney-at-law Everston Lammy-Singh, while Prosecutors Lisa Cave and Mandel Moore are appearing for the state.
Reports indicate that the 45-year-old fisherman and father of eight was fatally shot in his boat, allegedly by Callender, who was at the time a security guard attached to Pritipaul Singh Investments Inc. (PSI), McDoom, East Bank Demerara. The incident occurred close in proximity to the wharf.
Pollard was reportedly shot to the neck and groin with a shotgun.
