Essequibo labourer remanded on break-and-enter-and-larceny charge

Tulsieram Persaud, a 46-year-old labourer from Anna Regina, Essequibo Coast, was remanded to prison on Friday after being charged with break-and-enter-and-larceny.
The offence was committed on Saturday, February 8, at the residence of 56-year-old businessman Dindial Narine of Richmond Housing Scheme, Essequibo Coast.
The charge was read to Persaud during his court appearance at the Suddie Magistrate’s Court before Magistrate Tamieka Clarke. The defendant, who was not required to plead to the charge, pleaded not guilty when given the opportunity.
The prosecution objected to bail, and Persaud was subsequently remanded to prison.
The case has been adjourned to March 14, for the disclosure of statements.
