Twenty-one-year-old Venezuelan national Moses Chappelle, who was for the last two months residing with his uncle at Moruca, North West District, was on Monday remanded to prison by Georgetown Magistrate Sherdel Isaacs-Marcus on an allegation that he had stolen a boat.
It is alleged that on May 31, 2018, at Moruca, NWD, he stole one engine valued $631,560 and one boat valued $300,000, properties of Orlando Charles and Terrence Henry.
Police Prosecutor Gordon Mansfield said the items were recovered, but he still objected to the defendant being granted bail, describing the accused as a flight risk.
Chappelle denied the allegations levelled against him, but was denied bail, and the case has been set to continue on June 11.
