THE preliminary enquiry into the Heroes Day killing of four men at the Double Diamond gaming lounge in St Andrew last October was Wednesday postponed as the only two clerks at the Corporate Area Gun Court were on vacation leave.

Sources told the Observer that the Gun Court had been without the two clerks for two days, resulting in the adjournment of all matters scheduled.

The inquiry into the shooting death of Dijon Powell, 20; Davian Kerr, 19; William Wilberforce, 28; and Lynchmore Forbes is now set for July 15.

Jamaica Defence Force corporal, Leslie Moodie, who is claiming self-defence, has been charged with the murder of the men.

As a result of the long postponement, attorney Michael Deans made a bail application on behalf of his client but it was denied.
