TWO OF THE THREE accused persons charged in connection with the murder of Lamar Carter have been remanded to HMP Dodds until March 5.

The other person currently waits at the District D Magistrate’s Court for his attorney to see a warrant of arrest issued for him recently.

A large but quiet crowd converged outside the Rock Hall, St Thomas court this morning as Fidel Encomo Alleyne, 35, of 116 Denton Road, Grazettes, St Michael, and Malissa Carla Griffith, 25, of Rochester in Grazettes, appeared to answer the charge of murdering Carter between February 9 and 10.

Griffith is represented by Angella Mitchell-Gittens, while Fidel is without counsel.

Both were remanded.

Fidel’s brother, Javed Riad Alleyne, 31, was charged with committing acts to impede the prosecution of his brother between February 9 and 10. Javed is represented by attorney Stan Smith.

Prosecutor Sergeant Glenda Carter-Nicholls objected to Javed’s bail, noting he was a flight risk and had a history of not appearing for court matters.

She said a warrant had been issued for his arrest, and this warrant would be brought to the District D Court today. (Coastline Communication)
