Two men were yesterday found not guilty by the High Court in Berbice of the murder of a Whim Village businessman in 2012.
Elton Haynes, 28, a former policeman of Manchester Village, Corentyne and Carlton Akeem Bourne, 23, from Whim Village, Corentyne were on trial in the High Court for murdering Winston Ragnauth, 56, of Lot 2 Whim Public Road between the 6th and 7th of November, 2012 during the course of a robbery.
When the mixed jury came back close to two hours after with a unanimous verdict of not guilty, the two men ran out of the court with smiles on their faces after Judge Sandil Kissoon told them they were free.
