Magistrate to rule on caution statement in Babita Sarjou murder inquiry

Darrol Compton

Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan is expected to rule next week on the admissibility of a caution statement allegedly taken from Darrol Compton, who is charged alongside Anand Narine with the murder of Babita Sarjou.

The announcement was made by the Chief Magistrate at the continuation of the Preliminary Inquiry (PI) into the murder charge against the defendants yesterday.

At the closure of the voir dire (trial within a trial) to determine the admissibility of the caution statement, several police witnesses testified and were later cross-examined by attorney Nigel Hughes.
