QUACY Heywood, another companion in the car with murdered University of Guyana (UG) student Yohance Douglas, was grilled by three lawyers yesterday when the preliminary inquiry (PI) into the charge against the accused policemen continued before Acting Chief Magistrate Juliet Holder-Allen.
First attorney-at-law Compton Richardson resumed his cross-examination of the witness who had previously given evidence-in-chief.
Then Heywood, currently a Government Technical Institute (GTI) student, was cross-examined by Senior Counsel Bernard De Santos, also for the Defence and State Counsel Jo-Ann Barlow from the Chambers of the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) re-examined the witness.
The pre-trial proceedings were then adjourned to January 13, 2004.
Richardson and DeSantos are representing Gerald Alonzo and Mahendra Baijnauth, respectively.
The two Police Constables, still on remand in prison, are charged with the unlawful killing of Douglas in the shooting on Sheriff Street, Georgetown, last March 1.
Baijnuath alone faces a separate charge of attempting to murder Ronson Gray, who was shot and wounded in the jaw while he, too, was travelling with Douglas in the same vehicle.
