AN 18-year-old labourer was on Friday, August 30, 2019, arraigned before Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan at the Georgetown Magistrates’ Court.
It is alleged that, on August 27, 2019 at Port Kaituma, Raul Bovell assaulted a young woman.
Police Prosecutor noted that, on the day in question, the defendant and the virtual complainant were in a scuffle, when the defendant bit the virtual complainant on the forehead causing actual bodily harm.
When asked his reason for biting the virtual complainant, Bovell said “she formed a lie pon me.”
Bovell was placed on $10,000 bail and directed to report to the Port Kaituma police station regularly.
Magistrate McLennan adjourned the matter until November 5, 2019 at the Matthew’s Ridge Magistrates’ Court.
