Man remanded for indecent exposure

A man who allegedly showed his neighbour his penis, thereby causing her distress and alarm was on Friday remanded to prison by Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan when he appeared in the Georgetown Magistrates’ Courts.
Forty-six-year-old Mark Phillips denied the charge which stated that on October 13, 2018 at Yarrowkabra, Linden- Soesdyke Highway, he committed the act.
Based on reports received, the defendant is in the habit of making advances to the victim.
However, in court on Friday, he denied the claims and gave a different account of what transpired, telling the court that the victim was “making up the story”.
The Chief Magistrate ordered that Phillips be mentally evaluated and as such, remanded him to prison until November 6, 2018.
