Man remanded for possession of .38 revolver

Mar 12, 2013 News

 
Shevon Rodrigues, of 20 West La Penitence, appeared yesterday before Chief Magistrate Priya Beharry, to answer to the charges of possession of firearm and ammunition without a licence.
To the allegations, the defendant pleaded not guilty.
Prosecutor Sean Blackman stated that on March 8, in the Albouystown area, the police pulled up alongside a vehicle when they noticed the defendant putting an instrument at the back seat of the car. The police then instructed him to pull over. A search was conducted on the vehicle and a .38 revolver that carried five live rounds was discovered. The accused was arrested and taken to the station where the charges were read to him.
Chief Magistrate Priya Beharry subsequently transferred the matter to another court where it was taken over by Magistrate Judy Latchman.
Prosecutor Renetta Bentham held firm to the objection of bail which was also put forward by prosecutor Blackman.
Rodrigues was remanded and the matter continues on March 18.
