A Yambou man is slated to return to court on Aug. 4 for a preliminary inquiry into a charge that he murdered his father in the Marriaqua community on June 27.
Alanzo Corridon, 28, appeared before the Serious Offences Court on Thursday, where Chief Magistrate Colin John read the charge to him.
Corridon was charged that on June 27, at Yambou, he murdered his father, Don Jackson.
Corridon did not have a lawyer and was not required to plead to the indictable charge.
The magistrate explained to the accused man that he was not allowed to plead at that stage of the proceedings, bail was not opened to him and that he would be remanded in custody.
Jackson, a 60-year-old farmer, was pronounced dead at the Levi Latham Health Centre in Mesopotamia on June 27, where he was taken after being struck in the head, allegedly while intervening in an altercation among his sons, police have said.
Corporal 386 Jack of the Criminal Investigation Department, Calliaqua, is leading the investigation.
Vincy men are too ignorant, and have too much of a long history of violence… they need psychologists there to counsel the nation.
Aye Hygiana, know your place! Don’t bunch us! Furthermore, you probably have more crime where you live so stop acting like you live in the garden of Eden. Wait for the facts to come out. In case you were not reading, it was in the midst of a fight. It may not even meet the standard for murder when all is said and done.
