THE ENGINEER attached to the Region 5 Administration, Dhanpaul Sukha of Bush Lot Village, West Coast Berbice was earlier this week charged with causing death by dangerous driving.Sukha is accused of causing the death of motorcyclist, Inshain Jameer, 21, of Tempie Village, also in West Berbice on May 14, last.
Reports at that time stated that Jameer was sitting on a motorcycle on the side of the roadway at Naarstigheid, West Coast Berbice in conversation with a relative when the car driven by Sukha came into contact with the rear of his motorcycle.
Reports alleged that Sukha had been under the influence of alcohol at the time of the accident.
However, during his court appearance before Magistrate Rhondell Weever, no evidence was reported that suggested that he had been tested for alcohol after the accident or whether these tests, if done, had proven positive or negative.
Magistrate Weever allowed Sukha bail in the sum of $700,000 and ordered him to report to court for further hearing of the charge on June 15.
