LESTER Hopkinson, 17, of Lot 79 William Street, Kitty, Georgetown, was granted $750,000 bail yesterday, when he faced a $6M break and enter and larceny charge.
He appeared before Magistrate Faith Mc Gusty, charged indictably with committing the offence between August 8 and 9.
It is alleged that he broke and entered the dwelling house of Michelle Mc Kenzie and stole electrical appliances, clothing and footwear to the value.
Although he was not required to plea, the accused denied knowledge of the crime and claimed that the police kicked him on his mouth.
The prosecution had no objection to the grant but requested that the surety be a substantial amount.
Hopkinson will make his next appearance on October 9.
