Moraino Thomas, a teen who resides along the Adventure Public Road on the Essequibo Coast in Region Two (Pomeroon-Supenaam), was on Wednesday remanded to prison on robbery-with-violence charges after appearing before Suddie Magistrate Esther Sam.
Remanded: Moraino Thomas
Police are contending that this teen, who is also a construction worker, robbed two pensioners on December 23, but he has pleaded not guilty to the charges, which state that he robbed Odho Persaud and Nalini Persaud, both 56-year-old market vendors of Riverstown Primary School Dam, Essequibo Coast.
The Police Prosecutor’s objections to Thomas being released on bail were upheld by Magistrate Sam, and Thomas was remanded. His cases will continue on January 5. (G1)
