CHEF Travis Sobers was Wednesday ordered to post $70,000 bail by Magistrate Ann McLennan on a narcotics charge.
He pleaded not guilty to the charge that said on Saturday, November 29, at Houston, East Bank Demerara, he had in his possession 10 grammes of marijuana.
Representing Sobers was attorney-at-law, Mr. Adrian Thompson. In a bail application he told the court that the alleged substance was not found on his client’s possession but in a taxi which Sobers and others were occupying.
Police Prosecutor, Dinero Jones did not oppose bail but asked that surety be granted in a substantial amount.
However, bail was granted and the matter was transferred before Magistrate Judy Latchman for January 19.
