A man was on Friday granted bail after he was charged with harming another man, who had allegedly attacked a woman with whom they both share children.
Shawn Sam was read the charge by Magistrate Leron Daly, who stated that on July 31, at Stabroek Market, he is alleged to have unlawfully and maliciously inflicted grievous bodily harm on Oswald Wayne.
Sam, who asked to explain his actions before pleading, told the court that he was near Stabroek Market conducting business when he had a confrontation with Arlene Leacock. He added that he left and about five minutes after he received word that Wayne had hit Leacock, who is pregnant.
