Teens arraigned for robbing peer of $3000

Two teens were on Friday placed on $50,000 bail each by Magistrate Leron Daly when they appeared in the Georgetown Magistrates’ Courts to answer to a robbery charge.
Hamza Samuels and Jamal De Souza – both 18 years old – denied the charge which stated that on May 31, 2018, while in the vicinity of Avenue of the Republic, Georgetown, and while being in the company of others, they robbed Isaiah Winfield of $3000. In addition, the two teens used personal violence during the commissioning of the crime.
Police Prosecutor Gordon Mansfield objected to bail being granted to the teens while citing the serious nature of the offence.
However, Magistrate Daly released the teens on bail since they were known to each other. The matter was adjourned to June 29.
