A construction worker from La Parfaite Harmonie, West Bank Demerara, has been charged with attempted murder following a violent altercation earlier this week.
Forty-eight-year-old Sylvester Adams appeared before Acting Chief Magistrate at the Georgetown Magistrate’s Court on Friday to answer to the serious charge. Details presented in court allege that Adams was involved in an incident that left another individual with life-threatening injuries.
During the proceedings, Adams was not required to enter a plea, as attempted murder is an indictable offence. He was subsequently remanded to prison pending further investigation and legal proceedings. The case has been adjourned to allow for additional inquiries by law enforcement.
The incident has sparked concern among residents of La Parfaite Harmonie, a community that has seen a rise in violent confrontations in recent months. Authorities have reassured the public that they are taking all necessary steps to ensure justice is served and to maintain safety in the area.
As the investigation continues, police are urging anyone with information related to the case to come forward. The accused will remain in custody until his next court appearance.
