Sherwin Roberts, the Sophia man accused of killing his one-year-year-old niece over her earrings, was yesterday read a murder charge.
Roberts, 18, was read the charge by Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan in a Georgetown court, which heard that on September 1, at Lot 98 North Sophia, Greater Georgetown, he murdered Ronasha Pilgrim.
Roberts, of ‘A’ Field, Sophia, was not required to plead to the indictable charge.
Police Prosecutor Arvin Moore then requested a further date, while noting that the case file was incomplete.
