Akash Singh, also called “Monkey,” the third accused in the deaths of the Henry boys/cousins, pleads guilty to manslaughter in relation to both deaths. He appears in the Berbice High Court before Justice Gino Persaud and changes his plea from not guilty to murder to guilty on two counts of manslaughter.
Singh is charged over the killings of teenage cousins Joel and Isaiah Henry, and sources report he pleads not guilty to the two murder charges while admitting the lesser offences. The proceedings occur in connection with the broader case involving multiple accused, in which one defendant has now entered a guilty plea to manslaughter for each death. Details beyond the plea—such as the evidence or sentencing—are not covered in the provided excerpts.
Overall, both outlets describe the same court appearance, the same accused, the same judge, and the same outcome: guilty pleas to manslaughter for each of the two deaths, with murder charges remaining denied at this stage.
