Apr 19, 2017 Court Stories, Features / Columnists, News

Two residents of Agricola, East Bank Demerara have been remanded to prison for robbing a woman at gunpoint of cash and jewellery.
Antonio Maraj, 20, a fish vendor, of 27 Public Road, Agricola, East Bank Demerara and Dexter Wray, 24, of 95 Romulus Street Agricola, were not required to plead to the charge which stated that on April 4 at Lot 4 Public Road McDoom, East Bank Demerara, while armed with a gun, they robbed Simone Beaton of two tablet computers, two gold rings and $1,135,000 cash.
Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan ordered the duo to make another court appearance on May 8.
Attorney-at-Law Stanley Moore represented the two accused and asked for them to be granted bail in a reasonable sum. However, Police Prosecutor Arvin Moore opposed bail citing that there is a likelihood they might not return to court. The prosecutor also disclosed that none of the articles mentioned in the charged were recovered.
According to the prosecutor, the case file is still incomplete.
