Quada now joins Andrew Breakcliffe, 30, in a
probe into the mob killing of Miguel Williams in Sterling Castle in April 2019.
Breakcliffe was charged by the police on both counts in December.
Williams, a purported mentally-ill man was collared
by irate residents seeking justice for eight-year-old Shantae Skyers, who went
missing and was later found dead in the Red Hills area of St. Andrew.
Williams was beaten, set ablaze and his
house torched, allegedly by Clarke and others.
