Accused in ‘Mango Man’ murder unlikely for trial in current criminal session

The trial of Mark Royden Williams, called, ‘Smallie’ and Sherwin Nero, called ‘Catty,’ for the 2007 murder of Kumar Singh, also known as ‘Mango Man,’ is no longer likely to commence during the current criminal session of the Demerara Assizes.

When the case was called for the second time yesterday, attorney Nigel Hughes, who is representing the men, informed Justice Brassington Reynolds that Chief Justice (ag) Roxane George SC is likely to rule on Nero’s application for the charge to be thrown out by the end of the year, or at the beginning of 2018.
