Reputed leader of the Clansman gang, 27-year-old Tesha Miller, appeared under tight security yesterday in the Home Circuit Court.

Miller, who is facing four counts of murder, has been remanded until July 23 when defence lawyer Everton Bird will make a bail application.

He appeared in the Corporate Area Resident Magistrate's Court on Monday for allegedly breaching one of the conditions of his bail. When he returned to court yesterday, he was informed that the Crown had dropped the charge.

The court was told that the director of public prosecutions had taken the decision that a preliminary inquiry should not be held into the murder charges. The cases should instead be sent to the Home Circuit Court for trial.
