A duo was on Friday remanded to prison, after it was alleged that they robbed a man of his firearm while he was at church.
It is alleged that Quacey Sealy and Brenton Charles, on March 24, 2019, at the Brickdam Cathedral compound, stole a .32 pistol valued $270,000 and 14 rounds of ammunition, property of Michael Jardine.
Both men, who are known to the police, pleaded not guilty to the joint charge, which was read to them by Senior Magistrate Leron Daly, at the Georgetown Magistrates’ Court.
Attorney Mark Conway, who represented Charles, made an application for bail to be granted to his client but bail was refused to both accused.
The facts stated that on the said date, Jardine secured his bag containing the gun in his car and went to church. When he got back, he noticed his window broken and the gun missing. The men were caught on CCTV cameras.
The accused were both remanded to prison and were told to return to court on April 12, 2019 for their next hearing.
