To determine whether document is true copy of original
MORE witnesses were called in the conspiracy case voir dire yesterday against Abdel Bari, by Special Prosecutor Mr. Bernard De Santos, S.C.
Presiding Judge Mr. James Bovell Drakes is continuing his investigations to determine whether a copy of a magisterial document in Court is a true copy of the original magisterial document that was collated and certified.
The voir dire (a trial within a trial) became necessary after it was reported that the original magisterial document could not be located by clerks of the Registry.
The conspiracy to defraud contrary to common law charge accuses Abubakir Abdel Bari and Atta Sankar with having, between the 12th day of December, 1992 and August 1993 , in the county of Demerara, of conspiring together and with each other and with other persons to defraud the trustees and beneficiaries of immovable properties situated at 250 Foreshaw and Oronoque Streets, Queenstown, Georgetown, by falsely and dishonestly doing certain things.
The voir dire is continuing.
