No money paid; fisherman remanded

A compensation order which was not honoured landed a 24-year-old fisherman on remand to Dodds today.

When Romario Antonio Walcott of St Lawrence Road, Christ Church appeared before Magistrate Kristie Cuffy-Sargeant he pleaded not guilty to unlawfully assaulting Chana Benedict on April 24 occasioning her actual bodily harm.

There were no objections to bail by Station Sergeant Cameron Gibbons who revealed that there was an outstanding warrant out for him in one of the jurisdictions with respects to unpaid money.

“The one in Oistins slip me,” Walcott told the District ‘A’ Magistrates’ Court when he was told of the situation just before he was remanded until May 22.
