Twenty year old Lloyd Britton of Beterverwagting, East Coast Demerara maintained that he is being framed after the indictable charge of murder was read to him yesterday by Magistrate Judy Latchman at the Georgetown Magistrates? Court.He is charged with the murder of Elvis Fernandes, who was shot dead on Mandela Avenue on July 26.The young man was not required to plead.Britton, who is still recovering from the gunshot wound he too sustained on that day, was unable to stand on his own two feet and had to be assisted into the courtroom by a Police rank after he made several outcries for pain in his left side chest and lower abdomen.The facts of the case were not read in open court as Prosecutor Vishnu Hunt disclosed that investigations are still ongoing.Representing the defendant was Attorney at Law Peter Hugh.He said that his client was forced late Tuesday afternoon to place his right thumb on a document alleged to be a caution statement, the contents of which his client had no knowledge of.Britton told the court, ?I don?t know what the paper was saying. They are trying to frame me Your Worship. The officer sitting behind me is the one that force my hand on an ink pad and then place my thumb on the paper.?The Magistrate then asked Britton to identify the officer that forced him to place his thumb on the paper. Britton then said, ?It is the officer in the cream shirt,[url=http://www.cheapestnfljerseys.us@#$%&/]Cheap Jerseys From China[/url], Your Worship.?Magistrate Latchman then asked the officer to stand and he was identified as Detective 17982 Constable Marshall.This time,[url=http://www.cheapjerseysfan.us@#$%&/]Jerseys NFL Wholesale[/url], Britton broke down in tears as he stated,[url=http://www.wholesalejerseyssale.us@#$%&/]Wholesale China Jerseys[/url], ?Your Worship, I was simply a passenger in a bus. I don?t know anything about this shooting.?Counsel Hugh interjected at this point and said that there are still remnants of the ink stain on his client?s right thumb.In the company of the prosecutor and the court orderly,[url=http://www.cheapjerseysshare.us@#$%&/]Cheap Jerseys From China[/url], the Magistrate was escorted to the prisoner where she examined his thumb but expressed that she did not notice any remains of the alleged ink stain.Prosecutor Hunt said that based on the papers attached to the case file, there is no caution statement (CS),[url=http://www.cheapjerseysshare.us@#$%&/]Wholesale China Jerseys[/url], and to his knowledge, no CS was taken nor was the defendant made to attach his thumb print to one.However, the Prosecutor indicated that when the accused was taken to the station, it was required that he sign the prisoner?s charge sheet, and that may be the document in question.The Magistrate then asked a female Constable who had sworn to the information on the charge if any CS was taken and she said,[url=http://www.cheapjerseysauthenticonline.us@#$%&/]Cheap Jerseys NFL China[/url], ?No Your Worship.?The Attorney then told the court that his client is a father of one dependent child and only has one matter before the Cove and John Magistrate?s Court, which is for a different offence.Britton?s case was subsequently transferred to the court of Chief Magistrate Priya Beharry for report and fixture on September 5.
