Three men who are well known to the authorities and were nabbed in a car two Sundays ago, with a 22 Beretta Pistol in their possession were remanded to prison.
The men are Premchand Kalicharran, also called “Boysie”, 28 of Lot 81 Grant 1780 Crabwood Creek; Cordel Small called ‘Bumpy Mouth’, 23, a porter of Lot 34 Jukes Town, Corriverton and Jermine Jason Gulbia, 27, a fisherman of Lot 1780 Grant Crabwood Creek.
They appeared on Tuesday before Magistrate Maurica Mettleholzer in the New Amsterdam Magistrate’s court to answer the charge.
The defendants were charged with having in their possession one .22 semi automatic beretta pistol and one matching round while travelling in motor car PSS 8296 on Sunday 12th July at Sheet Anchor Public Road, while none of them was the holder of a firearm licence.
Prosecution Sergeant Phillip Sheriff told the court that around 12:10 hrs the police were on mobile patrol when they spotted the car which was being driven by Kallicharran with two other suspicious looking characters inside.
The vehicle was intercepted and upon searching, the police unearthed the firearm in the left side pocket of the car.
Prosecutor Sheriff objected to bail on the grounds that the men are not from the area. The men did not put forward any special reason for bail. The prosecutor reminded the court that two of the accused had committed the act while they were on bail for other offences. He also cited the prevalence of such offences.
The men will have to return to court on July 31st for a continuation of their trial.
Back in January this year Kalicharran was charged with five counts of robbery under arms. He was one of five men who ambushed and robbed a couple along the Adventure Access Road, Black Bush Polder. The man had made a gateway, but police subsequently intercepted the vehicle with him inside at Scottsburg Public Road, after a high speed chase. He and his accomplices were subsequently placed on $250,000 bail.
Small was previously charged for wounding, break and enter, and robbery under arms.
