The case against a man charged with the shooting death of another man during a dispute in March Pen, Spanish Town, St Catherine, has been transferred from the parish court to the Gun Court.
Thirty-two-year-old mechanic Daniel Carby, who is charged with murder, possession of a prohibited weapon and using a firearm to commit a felony, was remanded by Acting Senior Parish Court Judge Janelle Nelson-Gayle when he appeared in court on Tuesday.
The case was set for mention on September 25.
Allegations are that on July 24, there was an altercation between Carby and Robinson, during which the accused reportedly used a gun to shoot Robinson in the upper body.
He allegedly fled the scene.
Robinson was subsequently assisted to the Spanish Town Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
The police launched an investigation into the matter.
Carby reportedly surrendered to the Spanish Town police, where he was interviewed and subsequently arrested and charged.
