Nicolas Narine

A second accused in the robbery of Land Court Judge Nicola Pierre on Monday claimed that he too was at home on the night of the attack.

Leading his defence in unsworn testimony, accused Nicolas Narine told the court of Magistrate Zamilla Ally-Seepaul that he was at home on the night of July 8, 2015.

Narine, Premnauth Samaroo, Daymeion Millington, Warren McKenzie, and Anthony David are on trial for allegedly robbing the judge and her husband, Mohammed Chan, of cash and articles amounting to over $3.6 million, as well as shooting at security guard Ron Peters.

Narine said that he never left his house until July 14. He said he was eventually arrested at his home.
