A miner, accused of being in possession of an unlicensed firearm with matching rounds as well as armed robbery, was charged and remanded to prison last Friday.
Sherwin Hinds denied three charges, which were read to him in the courtroom of Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan in Georgetown.
The first charge against Hinds, 23, of Soesdyke, stated that on January 10th, 2018, at East Ruimveldt, he had a .32 pistol in his possession without being a licensed firearm holder.
