The 40-year-old was brought before Justice Nigel Pilgrim this afternoon but the matter was adjourned until September 26 due to a lacking in paper work.  This is the part of Nah’s case where he will be asked to enter a plea which will then proceed with a trial date.  Love News understands that under the Indictable Offences Act, the deadly means of harm charge would have to be heard separately before a judge and jury, while the murder and attempted murder charges would be heard by a judge alone.  It is unclear why the indictment did not occur in Belmopan or if the trial would also be heard here in Belize City. In today’s hearing, the Special Prosecutor, Terrence Williams appeared virtually along with one of Nah’s attorney, Godfrey Smith. Meanwhile, his other attorney, Lynden Jones, was present in the courtroom.
