Kartel, Gaza Slim conspiracy trial today

KINGSTON, Jamaica – Entertainer Vybz Kartel who received a life sentence on Thursday, April 3, for the murder of Clive ‘Lizard’ Williams is expected to return to court today after his conspiracy trial was postponed on Tuesday (August 11).

Kartel (Adidja Palmer) will stand trial today (August 14), after conspiracy charges were brought against him in the Corporate Area Resident Magistrate’s Court for attempting to pervert the course of justice.

A mention date was set for today after the court was told of the unavailability of witnesses in the case.

Kartel is charged jointly with entertainers Vanessa Saddler, otherwise called ‘Gaza Slim’; and Andre Henry, otherwise called ‘Pim Pim’.

The three were charged in 2012 after an investigation into an alleged scheme to deceive the police in their probe of Williams’ murder.

It is alleged that Saddler, in order to give the impression that Williams was not dead, reported to the Constant Spring police that she was robbed by him after the date he was believed murdered. A text was allegedly sent to Saddler’s cellphone instructing her to make the report to the police.
