A family of four and their friend were remanded to Her Majesty\u2019s Prison on Friday, after the police charged them with the attempted murder of two brothers.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Pedro Figueroa Valdez of St Johnson\u2019s Village and his son Jonathan Figueroa of Grays Farm, his two nephews, Juan and Radhy Figueroa of Grays Farm and Bendals respectively, and their friend Jos\u00e9 Pinedo of Hatton, were charged jointly with two counts each of attempted murder of Rafael and Joan Pe\u00f1a of Perry Bay.<\/p>\n
