MURDER accused Edward Skeete, called “Batty Boy,” was freed of the capital charge on Wednesday. Skeete was being tried for the murder of Bede Ramjewan, who was shot to death at Crown Dam, Industry, East Coast Demerara, in 2011.

The former murder accused, who was represented by Mr. Nigel Hughes, was discharged by the judge but had to return to prison, since he is serving a sentence for another crime.
Presiding Judge Mr. James Bovell-Drakes ordered that he be returned to prison to continue serving his sentence.
