Troyden Trellis, 30, of Savannah Park, New Amsterdam, Berbice, has been remanded to prison following his appearance at the Reliance Magistrate’s Court on Wednesday.
He appeared before Magistrate Michelle Matthias. The Court heard that on Thursday, April 17, Trellis murdered 53-year-old Hemchand Utan during a robbery.
He was not required to enter a plea to the indictable charge at this stage.
During the proceedings, Police Prosecutor Sergeant Mark Edwards informed the court that the case file is complete. Edwards sought three weeks to make the necessary disclosures, a request that Magistrate Matthias granted without hesitation.
On the day of the incident, police apprehended Trellis, recovering a vehicle, a 9MM pistol, and a motorcycle used in the commission of the crime.
Trellis is scheduled to reappear in court on May 19, with the matter now transferred to the New Amsterdam Magistrates Court.
The post Man, 30, remanded for murder of Edinburgh businessman appeared first on News Room Guyana.
