HIGH Court Judge Sandil Kissoon is expected to sum up today in the murder of security guard John Friday who died during a robbery committed on the Lethem Post Office back in 2013.

Thereafter, the judge will hand over the case to the jury for consideration and verdict. Currently on remand for the indictment are Alvin Kissoon, formerly of Kaneville, Grove, East Bank Demerara and Calvin King, formerly of Savage Street, North-East La Penitence.
The men are on trial before Justice Sandil Kissoon and a 12-member jury at the Demerara High Court. The duo had denied that, on January 18, 2013, at Lethem, they murdered Christopher John Friday during the course of, or in furtherance of, a robbery.
The state was represented by prosecutors Abigail Gibbs and Mandel Moore; the two defendants were represented by attorneys-at-law Adrian Thompson and Lyndon Amsterdam.

According to reports, the two accused committed the crime at the Lethem Post Office, where they torched several safes and stole the $9.8M on January 18, 2013.
The men tied up Friday who was a security guard, beat him and, as a result, he died. During the investigation, the two accused were caught with the money, a number of Guyana Telephone & Telegraph Company (GTT) phone cards, and two pay slips.
