Constable Andrew Wilson, the policeman charged in connection with the controversial shooting death of Latoya ‘Buju’ Bulgin of Granville, St James, was granted bail when he made his second appearance in the St James Parish Court yesterday.

Wilson was offered bail in the sum of J$1 million with up to three sureties after the prosecution informed the court that it was now in possession of the case’s civilian evidence. The accused was previously denied bail during his first court appearance on June 3, due to concerns that he might interfere with civilian witnesses.

During Tuesday’s court sitting, Wilson’s attorney, Michael Hemmings made a fresh application for bail before presiding parish judge Natiesha Fairclough-Hylton, citing the prosecution’s statement that CCTV footage from a civilian-owned camera has been added to the case-file along with the arresting officer’s statement.
