The driver accused of causing the accident that claimed the life of Wavel Sabsook, also known as ‘Bashment,’ was yesterday placed on over $1,000,000 bail after denying charges that he caused the man’s death and drove while under the influence of alcohol.

Appearing in a city court, Shameer Mohamed, 36, of 99 Diamond, East Bank Demerara, heard that on July 24, on the Diamond Public Road, East Bank Demerara, he drove PVV 2007 in a manner dangerous to the public, thereby causing the death of Sabsook. Mohamed was also charged with driving under the influence, whereby he reportedly had .103 microgrammes of alcohol in his system at the time of the accident.

He pleaded not guilty to both charges.
