Presiding judge, Justice James Bovell-Drakes, granted the further adjournment after the prosecutor informed the Court that the pathologist who had returned to the country and was expected to testify yesterday, had reported ill but believes he will be fit enough to testify today.

The pathologist, Dr Nehaul Singh is the last witness to be called for the prosecution before closing its case.

The closure of the Prosecution’s case is expected to be followed by defence no-case submissions in the absence of the jury.

The accused, KFC Security Guard David Chesney is facing trial for the unlawful killing of O’Neil Adams, an alleged robber who was running away with a roll of currency notes that he had snatched from a Cambio dealer in Water Street, on February 25, 2005.

The prosecution has set out to prove that the accused had shot and killed Adams at a time when he was subdued, unarmed and handcuffed.

But, the defence is denying this allegation, and a witness who was called by the prosecution to give additional evidence, including that aspect of the case, told the judge and jury that she saw nothing.

Security Guard Chesney who has pleaded not guilty and is being represented by Attorney-at-law Mr. Vidyanand Persaud, in association with Miss Prabha Persaud.

The hearing continues today.
