TWO men were remanded yesterday after they allegedly chased and gunned down a 31-year-old man in his South Beach home while he was on release for attempted murder last week.
Senior Magistrate Carolyn Vogt-Evans charged Malik Smith, 26, and Gamaliel Gray, 31, with murder.
The pair allegedly chased Gerrard Coakley from his back porch into his residence on Datura Avenue, where they shot and killed him on January 2.
At the time of his death, Coakley was awaiting trial for his alleged attempt to kill Tamiane Lewis and Jermaine Thompson on March 13, 2019.
The accused were told their matters would be transferred to the Supreme Court through a voluntary bill of indictment (VBI). They will be sent to the Bahamas Department of Correctional Services until the higher court grants them bail.
Their VBIs are set for service on May 22.
