Three more testify in PI into murder of Timehri teen

Jul 03, 2019 Court Stories, Features / Columnists, News

The preliminary inquiry (PI) continued into the murder of 17-year-old old David Toney, of Alliance Road, Timehri, East Bank Demerara.
The matter was heard in the Georgetown Magistrates’ Courts, with Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan presiding.
The accused Rickland Bovell, 22, a vendor, of Swan Village, Linden/Soesdyke Highway, who was charged for the murder, and brought before the courts, is still on remand.
The prosecution’s facts are that on April 12, 2019 at around 03:30 hrs, Bovell and Toney were engaged in an argument over a payment for cabbage. And during the argument, Bovell allegedly pulled out a knife from his pants waist and stabbed Toney to his abdomen where he then collapsed and subsequently died.
During yesterday’s continuance, Police prosecutor Neville Jeffers called three more witnesses to the witness box where under oath they testified what they recalled on the day of David Toney’s murder. Defence Counsel Amora Giddings cross-examined each of the witnesses.
Bovell is expected to make his next court appearance later in the month.
