Aniki Jones yesterday afternoon walked out of the High Court a free man after being cleared of the charge of murder when Justice Nareshwar Harnanan upheld a no-case submission made by his attorney, Mark Conway.
Jones, who was on trial for the murder of Carl Garnette, seemed not to have fully understood what the judge meant when he was told that he was free to go and he remained seated in the prisoner’s dock.
After his attorney explained to him what had transpired moments earlier from the court’s ruling, a smiling Jones got up, and expressed gratitude to the court and his lawyer.
