Ruimveldt man jailed for gun, ammo

A South Ruimveldt man was on Friday sentenced to four years in jail after he was found guilty of two counts of illegal gun and ammunition charges when he appeared in the Georgetown Magistrates’ Court before City Magistrate Judy Latchman.
Nabadaninge Gobin, 33, of Lot 149 Aubrey Barker Street, South Ruimveldt, Georgetown, was charged for the illegal possession of a 9mm Gluck pistol and for having 13 rounds of live ammunition in his possession.
Magistrate Latchman in her bid to use Goblin’s case an example, told the court that her ruling is based on the seriousness of the offence committed which is a direct result of the rampant spike in gun crimes nationwide.
Gobin, who is a repeat offender, was also fined 0,000.
