CHRISTOPHER Spencer, 31, was put on $100,000 bail yesterday in a $1.6m fraud case.
The defendant (no address given) appeared before Acting Chief Magistrate Melissa Robertson and pleaded not guilty to fraudulent conversion.
The charge alleged that, between March 8 and April 15, 2010, being solely entrusted with the sum, by Alston Scott, to purchase ground provisions for Darrel Campbell, he fraudulently converted the money to his own use and benefit.
Attorney-at-law Mr. Adrian Thompson, for the Defence, said Campbell sent cash to Scott for him to make purchases and, while Scott claimed Spencer collected it, he never did.
Police Inspector Stephen Telford, prosecuting, said the Prosecution needs advice from the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) and the case was put off to July 18.
