Ruben Baird, a miner, has been remanded to prison until March 5 by Principal Magistrate Judy Latchman for unlawful assault committed on Jerry James and Ruby Alonzo.
The court was told that the incident occurred on February 25, 2018 at William Street, Imbaimadai, North-West District, when, under the influence of alcohol, Baird unlawfully and maliciously inflicted grievous bodily harm on the virtual complainants by dealing them several lashes about their bodies.
Police Prosecutor Moore, objecting to the defendant being placed on bail, cited the serious nature of the offences and the penalty the charges attract.
