Former police corporal turned alleged killer Elmer Nah is three months away from hearing the verdict in his triple murder trial.
Oral submissions or closing arguments were made this morning in the trial of 40 year old Nah who is accused of killing John, David, and Vivian Ramnarace on December 31, 2020 in Belmopan.
Nah is represented by Dr Lyndon Jones and the crown by special prosecutor from Jamaica, Terrence Williams.
Dr Jones gave a 16 minute oral submission, asking the court to return a not guilty verdict for his client. Jones explained that the crown has only proven that a terrible crime occurred and not that Nah committed it.
Dr Jones questioned the credibility of the witnesses and of Vivian Ramnarace's statement she gave prior to her death.
The prosecutor, Williams, gave a 20 minute oral submission in which he stated that her identification of the shooter cannot be deemed as fleeting. He added that he believed the defendant gave different versions of the story.
Williams appeared virtually while Nah and his attorney appeared in person before Justice Nigel Pilgrim.
