Guy Edmonson, 22, of lot 97 Pineapple Street, East Ruimveldt, Georgetown, was on Thursday released on $80,000 bail by Magistrate Leron Daly after he appeared in the Georgetown Magistrates’ Courts.
Edmonson pleaded not guilty to a break and enter and larceny charge after it was read to him.
Facts presented to the court revealed that on May 22, 2018, while in the company of others, he broke and entered the home of Natasha Himchand after which he carted off US$2500, GY$500,000, four American Eagle boxers, one bottle of whiskey, one bottle of perfume and three cellphones.
The court also heard that on the day in question, the defendant was an occupant at the VC’s house. However, he was later seen by a neighbour leaving the yard the following morning with a black plastic bag, suspected to contain the stolen items.
According to Himchand, she subsequently made a report and Edmondson was arrested and charged. Police Prosecutor Sanj Singh had no objections to bail being granted.
The matter was adjourned until June 14.
