Tyrike Supal’s Murder Charge is Dismissed; No Reason Given

Thirty-year-old Nigel Williams was ambushed near the corners of Saint Joseph and Saint Thomas streets, as he drove his taxi on the night of March twenty-second, 2024.  He came under deadly gunfire and perished at the scene of the shooting.  In the wake of the incident, police arrested twenty-four-year-old Tyrike Supal and held him on remand for the past five months.  Today, Supal appeared unrepresented before the Chief Magistrate in Courtroom Number One, where the prosecution informed the court that they had received a memorandum from the DPP’s office instructing that the charge of murder be dismissed against Supal.  No reasons were given, but today was set for disclosure to be provided to the murder suspect.  That disclosure was not ready.
