On Sunday, an Albanian man was charged in court in connection with the robbery at Diamonds International, and the alleged attempted murder of two policemen during his arrest.

Daniel Muka, 22, was accused of involvement in the October 5 robbery at Tigne Point during which a security officer was injured and a substantial amount of jewellery was stolen.  

Muka pleaded not guilty. No request for bail was made. The court ordered a freezing of Muka's assets.
