AN 18-year-old boy appeared Thursday in a city magistrate court charged with attempted murder. He was not required to plead.

The charge alleged that on July 15, 2018 at Philippi Village, Upper Mazaruni River, with intent to commit murder, Ron Leman wounded Terry Fredrick.
The teen was represented by Attorney Clyde Forde.

Police Prosecutor Sanj Singh told the court that the virtual complainant was not hospitalized, and was out and recovering. Singh told the court he had no objection to bail but asked that conditions be attached.

Bail was granted by Magistrate Leron Daly in the sum of $150,000 on condition that the defendant report every Monday at 9 am to Sergeant Abrams at the Kamarang Police Station.

The matter was adjourned to July 23, 2018
