A jury was selected Monday to trythe case of the three persons charged with the murder of former president of the Jamaica Gasolene Retailers Association (JGRA), Lloyd G. Brown, and his 49-year-old fiancee, Sandra Campbell.

The accused are 39-year-old Peter Dougal, of Santoy district in Hanover; Donald Whyte, labourer, of a Kingston address and Sandra Watt, who was employed to Campbell as a household helper.

Mrs. Justice Norma McIntosh is presiding at the trial in the Home Circuit Court.

Brown, 62, and Campbell were fatally shot about 4:00 a.m. on Sunday, June 6, 2004 at Campbell's Stilwell Road home in Stony Hill, St. Andrew.

Later that day the police went to premises at Vineyard Town where a group of men allegedly engaged them in a shoot-out.

It is being alleged that, during the incident, Dougal was shot and injured and two firearms recovered.

Dougal was allegedly found in possession of Brown's photograph.

Forensic tests done on the guns proved that one of them was used to murder Brown and Campbell.

The police have theorised that it was a contract killing.
