Brazilian before court for fraud

Mar 02, 2013 News

A Brazilian man has been placed before the court on an allegation that he conspired with others to commit fraud.
Marico Rodrigo Brasil Alves, 32, allegedly between June 27, 2012 and November 8, 2012 at Georgetown with intent to defraud, conspired with persons or a person unknown to forge the signature on a Ministry Of Home Affairs document dated September 27, 2012 purporting to show that it was signed by the permanent secretary of the said Ministry.
Yesterday Alves was asked to post bail in the sum of $125,000, when he made an appearance before Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry at the Georgetown Magistrates’ Court.
Alves pleaded not guilty to the charge.  His Attorney, Onassis Granville, in a bail application, told the court that her client posses no risk of flight since he has a permanent local address in Bel Air Park Georgetown.
Granville said that Alves is a hairdresser and he owns a salon. He has one child.
Counsel further advanced that Alves is willing to subject to any conditions the court requests.
Police Prosecutor Kerry Bostwick did not object to the accused being granted bail; he however asked that he lodge all travel documents with the court and report  at the Brickdam Police Station.
His matter will be called again on March 4.
