A 28-year-old security guard on Wednesday appeared before Magistrate Fabayo Azore at the Georgetown Magistrates’ Courts after he was slapped with charges of assault and simple larceny.
Akeem Bacon, of Lot 506 Grove Housing Scheme, East Bank Demerara (EBD) is accused of assaulting Patreema Isaacs so as to cause her actual bodily harm on October 13, 2018 at West Ruimveldt, Georgetown. The other charge against him stated that on the same date and location, he stole one Android cellular phone valued $60,000, property of the same Virtual Complainant (VC).
The unrepresented man denied both charges.

Police Prosecutor Warren Thornhill made no objections to bail. As a result, Magistrate Azore granted Bacon $30,000 bail while Isaacs was released on $10,000 bail.
