The case against the two police constables: Roselle Tilbury-Douglas and Devin Singh was set to continue yesterday at the Providence Magistrate’s Court after Harding had testified on October 8 on the alleged assault.

The case was adjourned to November 11, as Prosecutor Nigel Hughes was unable to make it.

Tilbury-Douglas of Alliance Road, Timheri, East Bank Demerara, and Singh, of Lot 125 Mon Repos, East Coast Demerara, were jointly charged with assaulting Harding between November 1 and November 13, 2013, at the Timehri Police Station. Singh had an additional assault charge laid against him.
