A LAND of Canaan man was on Wednesday remanded to prison by Chief Magistrate, Ann McClennan after he was found with 30 live rounds of 9mm ammunition.
It is alleged that on June 30, 2017 at Port Kaituma in Region One (Barima-Waini), Paul Hector was found with 30 live rounds of 9mm ammunition on his person.
Hector’s attorney, however, argued that the ammunition were not found on his client’s person; that rather he was drinking with some friends in the vicinity where they were found.

It is on those grounds that he asked that bail be granted his client, since besides his wife, who is unemployed, he also has a toddler to take care of.
The prosecutor, however, objected to bail on the grounds that the reasons given were not convincing enough.
He also put it to the court that contrary to what the attorney was saying, the ammunition were found on his client’s person, and were even shown to him prior to his arrest.
The 41-year-old was remanded to prison until August 8, 2017.
