A PORTER, given a cart containing alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, worth $120,000, to transport for storage, never delivered the merchandise belonging to Curtis Marks.

Acting Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry heard the narrative yesterday, when William Thomas, of Lot 56 Supply, Mahaica, East Coast Demerara, appeared in Court on a larceny charge.
He pleaded not guilty to the offence, allegedly committed on September 14, at Cornhill Street, Stabroek, Georgetown.
Police Sergeant Gordon Mansfield, prosecuting, said the virtual complainant gave the drinks cart to the defendant, for him to take to a yard where he would, usually, store it.
But, when the owner went to retrieve the cart, he was told, by a security guard, that no one took it to the place.
Thomas was put on $20,000 bail and the case was put off to October 1.
