Rudolph Samuels

Seven men charged with the Rose Hall vigilante killing in May were freed yesterday but soon came under gunfire from lawmen who mistakenly believed that they were escaping from the Whim Magistrate’s Court.

Magistrate Rabindranauth Singh discharged Rudolph Samuels, 21, called ‘Rudy’; Aris Cecil, 20, called ‘Safick’; Richard Griffith, 18, called ‘Brick Head’; Michael Lewis, 27, called ‘Mikey’; Khrishnaraj Jagdeo, 47, called ‘Chris’; Jameer Akadulasy; and Darwin Anthony Trim after upholding a no-case submission
