Accused Aziza Kebret Tsgaye Clarke told police Hakeem Stuart did not tell her from where he had come when she picked him up and neither did she ask him.

She added he, however, jumped out of her car after she reached a dead end, and she was then apprehended by police.

This was contained in her witness/movement statement which was read by Sergeant Veronica Carrington to the No 5 Supreme Court yesterday.

Clarke, of Bonnetts, Brittons Hill, St Michael, has pleaded not guilty to knowing or believing that Hakeem Stuart had committed the arrestable offence of murder, she assisted him by transporting him from Briar Hall to Graeme Hall, both in Christ Church – an act intended to impede his lawful apprehension on March 21, 2019.
