The three men accused of hurling a grenade at a Lexus belonging to Kaieteur News Publisher, Glenn Lall, are scheduled to go on trial at the ongoing session of the Demerara Criminal Assizes, according to the Registrar of the Supreme Court of Judicature.
Alfie Garraway, Janeil Howard and Leroy Williams, were in January 2017, committed to stand trial at the High Court after Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan ruled that there was sufficient evidence against them at the conclusion of a preliminary inquiry.
Williams, 27, of 11 D’Urban Backlands; Howard, 22, of 322 Section ‘C’ Turkeyen, East Coast Demerara; and Garraway, 38, of Norton Street, Lodge, Georgetown, are accused of conspiring together with other persons to cause an explosion by way of throwing a grenade, likely to endanger lives and cause damage to property.
The offence occurred on June 4, 2015, at Kaieteur New’s Saffon Street, Charlestown, Georgetown office.According to reports, on the day in question, a member of the Kaieteur News security staff heard an unusual sound near Lall’s Lexus SUV, PRR 8398. The vehicle was parked on the western side of Saffon Street outside the building housing the newspaper offices. On checking the front of the vehicle, the staff member spotted a grenade lying near one of the front tyres.
Video footage from the company’s CCTV cameras showed a grey-coloured vehicle slowing as it approached Lall’s vehicle. The driver accelerated after the explosive was thrown. Garraway was granted $300,000 bail by the High Court. It is unclear whether his co-accused were also admitted to bail.
