A MAN was denied bail for the fourth time in the Supreme Court yesterday as he awaits trial on multiple counts of murder and attempted murder.

Braheem Charlton, 30, represented by attorney Ian Cargill, appeared before Justice Cheryl Grant-Thompson for a decision on his latest bail hearing.

This comes after Charlton was accused of the August 9, 2021, murder of Dino Brown and attempting to cause the death of Dennis Bowles. Brown was killed off Marshall Road.

It is further alleged that on August 14 of that same year while being concerned with others Charlton caused the death of Laneisha Armbrister, a trainee immigration officer. It was during this incident, it is said, he attempted to kill Drazen Dean after he allegedly opened fire on the two at an intersection in Victoria Gardens.

Acknowledging that Charlton had earlier made three failed bail applications, the Justice ruled the accused posed a high flight risk. As such, Charlton was once more denied bail and remanded to the Bahamas Department of Correctional Services.

His trial is set to begin over the summer.
