HEADLINE: Ex-Cop Cleared of Seeta’s Bar Murder Charge

ARTICLE: The Georgetown Magistrates’ Court has dismissed the murder charge against former police officer Keenon David, stemming from a fatal shooting that occurred at Seeta’s Bar in Kitty in July 2019. The ruling was delivered by Magistrate Annette Singh following a successful no case submission made by defense attorney Siand Dhurjon on Tuesday morning.

The dismissal came at the close of the prosecution’s case, meaning the court determined that the evidence presented by the prosecution was insufficient to require the defendant to answer the charge. A no case submission is a legal argument made by the defense contending that the prosecution has failed to establish a prima facie case against the accused.

David, a former member of the Guyana Police Force, had been facing the serious charge in connection with the 2019 incident at the Kitty establishment. With Magistrate Singh’s ruling, he has been formally freed of the charge without the need to mount a defense.
