Marcus Bisram

The lawyers for Guyanese murder accused Marcus Bisram have filed a petition to have their arguments reheard in an appeal of a New York district court’s order to extradite him to Guyana, where he is due to stand trial for murder.

Last month, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit affirm-ed the judgement of the district court.

Bisram, a dual citizen of the United States of America and Guyana, currently faces a charge of murder in Guyana for an incident which occurred on the night of October 31st, 2016.
