An attorney has urged the court to dismiss a 2024 case against four St Michael men, arguing that the prosecution has had ample time to complete its file.

Three bakers, Ashamin Joe Bennett and Rondrae Ricardo Heron, both of Brownes Gap, Jackson, and Gary Everal Walker, of Small Gap, Bridge Gap, along with labourer Dujohn Dwayne Briscoe, of Port Road, My Lords Hill, have denied that on August 24, 2024, they trespassed on the home of Gregory Hamilton with intent to inflict grievous bodily harm on him and, at the time, had with them a hatchet, cutlass, hammer and knife.

After the prosecution said the case file was not yet complete because statements were still outstanding, lawyer Samuel Legay strongly urged the court to dismiss the case for want of prosecution.
