28-year-old Charles Griffith, a miner of Robb Street Lacytown, Georgetown was on Tuesday charged with murder.
The defendant appeared before Chief Magistrate Ann Mc Lennon to answer for the offence which he allegedly committed on Shane Blake on 23 June 2021.
He was not required to plead and was remanded to prison until July 27, 2021.
The matter has since been transferred to the Bartica Magistrate’s Court.
