Brothers granted bail for forged tint permit

Nov 29, 2008 News

Two men were yesterday granted bail to the tune of $95,000 each, after being charged with forging a tint permit.
The men, Eric Sankar and his brother, Nigel Sankar, made their appearance at the Georgetown Magistrates Court before acting Chief Magistrate Melissa Robertson.
It is alleged that on November 27, Nigel Sankar uttered a forged document to a police constable, purporting to show that the same was issued by the Ministry of Home Affairs and signed by Minister Clement Rohee.
The other charge read that Eric Sankar, sometime between August 1 and November 27, conspired to commit a felony, that is to say, he forged a window tint permit for motor car PLL 8563 purporting to show the same was genuine and signed by Home Affairs Minister Clement Rohee.
Both men pleaded not guilty to their respective charges. The men were represented by defence attorney Adrian Thompson.
Thompson, in a bail application, told the court that the men’s older brother uses the car to conduct business, and he is currently is the United States.
According to Thompson, the car, along with the permit, was left with his clients, who had no idea that the document was forged.
Prosecutors did not object to bail, which was granted.
