Jermaine Carroll, the driver accused of killing six-year-old Joseph Quallis, was remanded to prison yesterday after a court heard that he had been eluding police who were after him for a number of minor matters.
The allegation against Carroll, 28, is that on June 12, at Georgetown, he drove PPP 5931 in a manner dangerous to the public, thereby causing the death of Quallis.
Additionally, Carroll, of Lot 3417 Stevedore Housing Scheme, was charged with driving the vehicle without an insurance for third party risk at the time.
He pleaded not guilty to both charges after they were read to him by Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry
