Porter released on $100,000 bail for wounding at Pouderoyen

Twenty-four-year-old Fred Trimeon, a porter of Plantation Best, West Coast Demerara, was on Thursday granted $100,000 bail at the Wales Magistrate’s Court by Magistrate Rushell Liverpool for the unlawful wounding of Stephan Johnson at Middle Street, Pouderoyen, West Bank Demerara. The father of two, who said he was never previously charged, denied the allegation which Police said occurred on March 5, 2018.
The Police prosecution objected to bail based on the grounds of the seriousness of the offence but the Magistrate overruled this application and granted the man his pre-trial liberty. She however ordered that Trimeon stay 50 feet away from Johnson for the duration of the matter. The case was transferred to the Vreed-en-Hoop Magistrate’s Court for April 3.
