Treason PI resumes, adjourned

THE preliminary inquiry (PI) into the treason charge against Guyana Defence Force (GDF) Major Bruce Munroe, his wife, Carol Ann Munroe and former Army Reserve  Officer Leonard Wharton continued before Acting Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry yesterday.
Prosecution witness Quincy Critchlow resumed his testimony in the case being prosecuted by the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) Shalimar Ali-Hack, in association with State Counsel Sonia Joseph.
The proceedings have been adjourned to March 22 when the witness will conclude his evidence-in-chief.
The Munroes and Wharton are accused of having, between December 1, 2009, and December 16, 2010, plotted to level war within Guyana and force the President out of office.
The capital offence is linked to the arson at the Ministry of Health in Brickdam, attempts to burn Richard Ishmael Secondary School and the Supreme Court and the gun attack at Brickdam Police Station, all in July 2009.
