A MAN of Lot 85 William Street, Kitty, Georgetown who was accused of breaking into a city bond was Monday refused bail by Magistrate Judy Latchman.

Clinton Kissoon, 49, pleaded not guilty to the break and enter charge that said between August 28 and 29 at Second Street, Alberttown, he broke and entered the bond of Alpha Import and Export and stole one Toshiba laptop computer, one Kindle and a quantity of perfume and soap powder, a total value of $1M, property of Denbeigh Rickford.

The unrepresented man reminded Magistrate Latchman that he had paid a $200,000 fine for simple larceny before her when asked if he had any prior convictions.

Police Prosecutor Michael Grant successfully opposed bail by citing the prevalence, nature and gravity of the offence.

The prosecutor’s objection was upheld and the case will be called again on September 10 before Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry.
