A man was remanded to prison on Thursday, January 17, 2019, by City Magistrate Leron Daly, for allegedly robbing a man with the use of a cutlass.

Noel George pleaded not guilty to the charge which alleged that on January 9, 2019, at Croal Street, Georgetown, while being armed with a cutlass, he robbed Zain Angel of $70,000 cash.

Prosecutor, Corporal Sanj Singh, opposed the granting of bail to the accused on the grounds that the he was recently before the court for similar charges and also had pending matters.

Magistrate Daly, after considering the prosecution’s objection, remanded George to prison until January 21, 2019.
