‘Sharky’ to stand trial for 2017 murder

Purcell Moore

Wayne Anthony Chester, called ‘Sharky,’ was yesterday committed to stand trial for the 2017 murder of Purcell Moore, who was shot and killed by bandits as they attempted to relieve him of his gold chain.

Chester was not required to plead to the indictable charge, which alleges that on December 20th 2017, at Craig, East Bank Demerara, he murdered Purcell Moore during the course of a robbery.

The Preliminary Inquiry (PI) into the murder was conducted by Principle Magistrate Sherdel Isaacs-Marcus in the Georgetown Magistrate’s Court Three.
