Jun 17, 2015 Court Stories, Features / Columnists, News

An East La Penitence man who decided to take advantage of a woman by robbing her of a gold chain, was yesterday jailed for 18 months by Magistrate Fabayo Azore.
Noland Forde, a porter, admitted to the court that on June 13 at Stabroek Market, he stole a gold chain valued $200,000 from Higinno Rosolen.
According to the prosecution, the woman was walking in the vicinity of the Stabroek Market area, when Forde approached her and snatched the chain. He tried to escape but was caught by public-spirited citizens who summoned the police.
This matter was prosecuted by Police Corporal Simone Payne.
In another case, a porter was released on $50,000 bail after he was accused of simple larceny.
Particulars of the charge stated that on June 15, at Georgetown, Devon Rodney broke and entered the dwelling house of Shazam Ibrahim and stole a BlackBerry phone casing valued $10,000, five DVD players worth $44,000 and $5,440 cash, property of the said Ibrahim.
Rodney, 39, of Thomas Street, Alberttown, Georgetown, pleaded not guilty to the charge after it was read to him.
The unrepresented man will make his next court appearance tomorrow, before Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry.
