TRACY Garnett, 30, of Lot 334 Lamaha Park, South Ruimveldt, Georgetown, appeared before Acting Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry, yesterday, charged with simple larceny.

She pleaded not guilty to the offence. Particulars of which said on September 12, she stole a pair of spectacles valued $43,000, property of Michelle Dover.
Police Sergeant Gordon Mansfield, prosecuting, said the virtual complainant was at the route 44 bus park when she saw her husband and the defendant rubbing faces.
The prosecutor said Dover went up to her husband and Garnett became annoyed and held on to the other woman, pulled off her glasses and threw them in a nearby trench.
But Defence Counsel Paul Fung-a-Fat said Dover fabricated the entire story about the theft because she was seen with the husband of the defendant.
Garnett was put on self-bail until October 1, but both women were bonded to keep the peace pending the determination of the case.
