Violence prone ‘Fix-up’ remanded

THIRTY-year-old Quincy Henry, also known as “Fix Up”, stood before Magistrate Fabayo Azore yesterday to answer to the charges of attempted murder and armed robbery.He was not required to plead to the charge which alleged that on September 20, 2015 at Bourda, he unlawfully and maliciously wounded Troy Bacchus with intent to murder him.

Police Prosecutor Assistant Superintendent Stephen Telford objected on the prosecution’s behalf to bail. He noted that the defendant had no fixed place of abode.

It is also alleged that on October 12 at Orange Walk, Bourda, being armed with a knife, he robbed a Chinese national of $100,000 cash. To this charge he pleaded not guilty.

According to the charge, the accused would normally be around the Bourda Market begging for money. However, when persons refuse his request, he would erupt in a violent manner and attack them.

Magistrate Azore upheld the no-bail request and Henry was remanded. He will re-appear in court on October 27.
