Owner of the Guyana Variety Store and Nut Centre John Rudolph Singh, scheduled to be sentenced yesterday for causing public terror, is now out of jail on $200,000 bail after recanting his guilty plea.
Singh, of 38 Cummings Street, Georgetown, made his second appearance before Magistrate Ann McLennan at the Georgetown Magistrates’ Courts, where he was due to be sentenced after the presentation of a probation report.
