A MAN who pleaded guilty to two indictable charges will have to wait a while before being sentenced.Forty-nine-year-old Stephen Jagroop of Duncan Street, Campbellville was on Friday remanded by Magistrate Annette Singh after he appeared before her charged for damage to property and committing a breach of the peace.
The charges read that on January 2, 2016, Jagroop damaged one wooden door valued $80,000 and one iron gate valued $100,000, the property of Ayube Khan. It is also alleged that on February 3, 2016, he damaged one fence valued $500,000, property of the said defendant. He pleaded guilty to those two charges.
However, he denied that on April 5, 2016, he breached the peace by using threatening and abusive language towards Farida Khan.
A family member informed the court that he was mentally unstable. As a result, the magistrate ordered that he be remanded for evaluation, so as to determine whether he was capable of standing trial and/or being sentenced.
Jagroop has to return to court on May 3, 2016.
