A MAN on bail for murder who allegedly failed to charge his electronic monitoring device was granted bail again yesterday.

Magistrate Shaka Serville charged Kevin Ramsey, 30, with eight counts of violation of bail conditions.

Ryzard Humes represented the accused.

The Supreme Court had granted Ramsey bail after he was charged with allegedly murdering Patrick Thompson on April 21, 2017, outside a car wash on Market Street.

Ramsey was also charged with the attempted murders of Terrance Rigby and police constable 3825 Hall during the same incident.

Ramsey allegedly failed to charge his EMD eight times between April 2 and June 6.

After pleading not guilty to the charges, he was granted $5,000 bail with one or two sureties. Under the bail conditions, he is mandated to follow a 7pm to 6am residential curfew and must sign in at the Carmichael Road Police Station every Monday, Wednesday and Friday by 7pm.

His trial will begin on September 29.
