Compol says Police had Sufficient Evidence to Charge Budna

Last week, self-styled journalist, Joseph Budna was taken to court after he was charged for abetment to murder. He was arraigned in connection to a murder that occurred three years ago which resulted in the death of fifty-year-old Guatemalan national Armando Cacao. Upon leaving court, Budna told the media that he was being wrongly accused and maintains that the police department did not have sufficient evidence to charge him. Today, we spoke with Commissioner of Police, Chester Williams, who refuted those claims.

“I don’t know if he has met bail, but as I had said to the media before, we had an investigation involving him. Witnesses came forward, provided statements to the police, which was sufficient for us to be able to get sufficient evidence to charge him, and he was charged.”
