Three young city residents accused of robbery were able to secure $75,000 bail each on Monday when they appeared at the Georgetown Magistrates’ Court before Magistrate Faith McGusty.
Terry Phillips, 21, Mortimer John, 20, both of Tucville, Georgetown, and Gavin Lovell, 21, of Princess Street, were accused of using knives to rob Tenisha Garner and Madaine Humphrey, on August 28th
The two persons were walking in the vicinity of Lodge, Georgetown, at the time of the incident.
Garner reportedly lost a BlackBerry cell phone worth $65,000, and a gold chain valued at $36,000. Humphrey is said to have also lost a BlackBerry cell phone, $10,000 cash, his wallet and some documents, all valued at $68,000.
The unrepresented defendants were not required to plead when the matter was called.
The prosecution had no objections to the defendants being allowed to go on bail but requested that conditions be set.
The Court ordered that the defendants post their bail and further report to the East La Penitence Police Station on Monday and Friday of each week.
According to the police, the victims were walking in the vicinity of Lodge when the three accused approached them on bicycles. The men reportedly drew knives and ordered them to hand over their belongings.
A report was later made to the police station and after checks in the community, the defendants were arrested and later charged.
The men will make another court appearance on October 8th.
