Missing Banks DIH funds lands two in court

Jul 14, 2009 News

Two former employees from BANKS DIH were yesterday placed on $100,000 bail after making a court appearance before Acting Chief Magistrate Melissa Robertson.
It was alleged that Delroy Andrews, 19, of 5 Melanie Damishana, East Coast Demerara; and Joseph Williams, 24, of 22 John Street, on July 8 fraudulently converted beverages worth $728,000 to their own use.
They both pleaded not guilty.
Joseph is being represented by attorney at law Glen Hanoman, who said that his client worked at the company as a driver and salesman. Hanoman said that he would deliver drinks and collect the monies from these sales.
The lawyer said that on the day in question, the truck on which his client worked had a faulty canister that could not be locked. He said that Joseph went into a business place to make a delivery and soon after he reported back to his officer.
Hanoman said that it was only after Joseph went back to his workplace that he discovered that the money was missing.
The lawyer further told the court that his client is not alleging that “someone robbed him”.
The prosecution did not object to bail. The defendants are expected to make another court appearance on September 1.
