TAXI driver Anil Rohaman was placed on $45,000 bail when he appeared on Tuesday before Magistrate Zamilla Alli at the Cove and John Magistrate’s Court accused of driving without due care and attention.

It was alleged that on February 11th on the Enmore public road, Rohaman drove a motor car without due care and attention.

The man pleaded guilty to the charge but after his explanation, the presiding magistrate decided to enter a not guilty plea on his behalf.

According to Rohaman, he was driving along the Enmore public road, heading west, when he overtook a car and a motorcycle that were heading in the same direction at a very fast rate.

He went on to tell the court that a few minutes later the motorcycle ended up hitting his car, which led to him being charged and placed before the court.

After listening to the man’s story and reviewing the prosecution’s particulars, Magistrate Alli released Rohaman on bail.
He is expected to return to court on 8th April for report.
