WARREN George, currently on trial at the Demerara High Court for rape, had his bail revoked on Wednesday after escaping police custody, on Tuesday, under the guise of using the washroom.
He turned up for court voluntarily on Wednesday after the escape, and Justice Navindra Singh revoked his bail.

He is facing a rape trial before Justice Singh and a 12-member jury. He was out on bail pending his trial.

During the court hearing on Tuesday, George requested to use the restroom and was accompanied by a police officer. However, upon his return, overwhelmed by nervousness, he impulsively jumped off the court’s corridor to the ground floor, successfully escaping from custody.

To everyone’s surprise, George voluntarily returned to court the following day, explaining that his actions were a mistake.

Considering the gravity of the situation, Justice Singh decided to revoke George’s bail, and he was remanded into custody.
