Yorshabelle Liverpool, 24, of 136 Crown Street, Queenstown, was remanded yesterday, after she appeared before Acting Chief Magistrate Melissa Robertson to answer two charges of obtaining money by false pretence.

It is alleged on September 28, last, the accused who is the niece of the virtual complainant, Ronald Ramcharran, with intent to defraud, obtained $350,000 by virtue of a false instrument, from the Demerara Bank.

It is also alleged that on September 30, Liverpool, with intent to defraud, obtained $455,000 by virtue of false instrument, from the Demerara Bank.

According to Attorney at Law Nigel Hughes “the accused worked with Ramcharran for some time”.

He added, “Some of the money has been lodged at the Police Station.

According to the prosecution led by Prosecutor Kevin London, “The accused entrusted her boyfriend with $150,000. He, when contacted by the police, denied any knowing of how the accused gathered the money and took it down to the police station and lodged it there.”

According to Ramcharran, “The accused is the one who cashed the money at the bank”.

Liverpool, through her father, told the magistrate “We will make restitution of the money on the next court date”.

The accused was remanded and is expected to return to court October 8.
