State Prosecutor Judith Gildharie-Mursalin told the court on Friday how three coastguard officers threw Bartica gold dealer Dweive Kant Ramdass overboard after taking the $17 million he had in his possession, in her opening statement as the trial began.
The trial proper began at the High Court sitting at Suddie after Justice Franklyn Holder concluded the last voir dire (trial within a trial) that was being held to determine the admissibility of the statements of the three accused–Sherwyn Hart, Deon Greenidge and Delon Gordon–to the police.
