After several weeks of intense grilling, the man police believed shot dead political activist Courtney Crum-Ewing was Friday afternoon charged with murder.

He is 37-year old Regan ‘Grey Boy’ Rodrigues of Riverview, Ruimveldt.

He is acuused of the murder of Crum-Ewing on March 10,2015 at Diamond , East Bank Demerara.

Rodrigues was not required to plea to the indictable charge after it was read to him by City Magistrate Fabayo Azore.

He was remanded to prison until August 21.

Rodrigues was fingered in the offence after ballistic tests on a gand gun found in his possession allegedly proved that it was the same weapon that was used to kill Crum-Ewing.

At the time, he had been on bull horn encouraging residents to go out and vote in the May 11, 2015 general elections for the APNU+AFC Coalition.
