The matter was called again yesterday by Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan for an update, however, the prosecutor was unable to present the update.

After some time, the Chief Magistrate adjourned the matter until October 10 and transferred it the Springlands Magistrate’s Court.

Bisram, it is alleged, procured and commanded Orlando Dickie, Radesh Motie, Diodath Datt, Harri Paul Parsram, and Niran Yacoob to murder Narinedatt between October 31, 2016 and November 1, 2016, at Number 70 Village, Berbice.

In July, Bisram was apprehended by members of the NYPD/U.S. Marshals Joint Fugitive Task Force and he is now fighting ongoing extradition proceedings.
