Kwakwani Park resident remanded for hardware store burglary
A man who hails from Kwakwani Park, Berbice, was recently remanded to prison by a city Magistrate for allegedly burgling a hardware store at 111 Miles, Mahdia.
The accused, Peter Giddings, appeared before Magistrate Ann McLennan on Wednesday at the Georgetown Magistrates’ Court and pleaded not guilty to the charge of break and enter and larceny.
The charge states that between April 20 and April 21, last, at 111 Miles, Mahdia, Giddings broke and entered Miner’s Choice Hardware Store and stole a gold chain as well as a gold and diamond ring.
The items listed are said to amount to $266,000 and are the property of the store’s general manager, Gordon Durant.
The case was prosecuted by Corporal Deniro Jones who did not reveal the details of the crime but offered several objections to him being granted bail.
The Magistrate upheld the objections and remanded the accused. The case will again be called before Magistrate Allan Wilson at the Mahdia Magistrate’s Court on July 14.
