FORTY-five-year old Keshawn Williams of Lot 54 Bent Street, Wortmanville yesterday appeared before Magistrate Judy Latchman to answer to a charge of possession of firearm and ammunition.It is alleged that on October 16 at Alberttown, Georgetown he had in his possession of one .45 pistol with nine live matching rounds. Williams pleaded not guilty to the allegation.
In a bail application, attorney Eusi Anderson noted that his client was not in physical possession of the items nor was he the owner of the vehicle in which it was found.
Meanwhile police prosecutor Corporal Keri Boswick in his objections told the court that the accused in a caution statement admitted to having the items in his possession. He said he found it and decided to keep it for safety.
Magistrate upheld the prosecutor’s objection and remanded Williams until November 27.
