Albouystown man remanded on robbery-under-arms charge

Thirty-year-old Leonard Allicock of James Street Albouystown, Georgetown was on Friday remanded to prison when he appeared before Georgetown Magistrate Fabayo Azore arraigned for robbery-under-arms.
Unrepresented by legal counsel, Allicock pleaded not guilty to the charge, which stated that on July 29, 2018, while in the vicinity of Albouystown Georgetown, and while being armed with a gun, he robbed Christopher Gonsalves of four gold chains valued at $340,000, and one cellphone valued at $240,000.
The Police prosecutor objected to Allicock being placed on bail, citing the serious nature of the offence and noting that a dangerous weapon had been used during or before the alleged robbery.
Bail was refused Allicock, and the matter was adjourned until August 17.
