Khemraj Ramgobin of Timehri, East Bank Demerara (EBD) on Friday admitted before Magistrate Sherdel Isaacs-Marcus that on May 29, 2018, while in the vicinity of Wismar, Linden, and while armed with a cutlass, he broke and entered the home of Anthony Lieu-Ken-Pen.
An alarm was, however, raised by Lieu-Ken-Pen, who was at home with his two children, and the 23-year-old Ramgobin was arrested and charged.
In a plea of mitigation, Ramgobin told the court, “I was really hungry, and I was calling really long…but I didn’t get to go inside far.”
Ramgobin has been sentenced to one year’s imprisonment for the offence.
