A Sophia man, who allegedly robbed another man of his jewellery and money while armed with a cutlass, was granted bail yesterday after his accuser indicated that he was approached to accept compensation and drop his complaint.
Denzel George, a 23-year-old mason of Sophia, denied the charge, which alleges that on December 9th, 2019, at South Sophia, while being armed with a cutlass, he robbed Akeem Hodge of a gold chain, valued $60,000, a gold band valued $40,000, and $30,000 in cash.
The charge was read by Principal Magistrate Sherdel Isaacs-Marcus in the Georgetown Magistrates’ Court Three.
