After compensating virtual complainant… : Freed fraud defendant bonded for a year

FIFTY-YEAR-OLD Conrad Wright, of Lot 13 Friendship, East Bank Demerara, had a fraud charge against him dismissed yesterday, after the virtual complainant said he has been compensated. Before Magistrate Sueanna Lovell, Wright had pleaded not guilty to having, between June 9 and 17, 2011, with intent to defraud, obtained $1.4M from Indar Beepat by falsely pretending that he was the registered owner of motor lorry GKK7383 and was in a position to sell it, knowing same to be false.
However, Beepat informed the court that he does not wish to proceed with the case because he had received compensation in the form of a motor car.
Despite no evidence being offered against Wright, he was placed on a bond to keep the peace for one year.
