Two inmates of the New Amsterdam Prison who earlier this month were found guilty at the High Court in Berbice of the murder of a fellow prisoner in an attack at the facility in 2017, were yesterday both sentenced to life in prison with eligibility for parole after thirty years.
In July, 2017, Dillon Boucher, 25, of Haslington Village, East Coast Demerara; Rooplall Abrahim, 24, of Lot 4 Bath Settlement, West Coast Berbice; and Ramchand Latchman, 23, of Number 65 Village, Corentyne, were charged with the murder of Neshan Jagmohan, 27.
Boucher and Latchman were unanimously found guilty by a jury following a trial before Justice Sandil Kissoon at the High Court in Berbice.
