Court Local News $25,000 for gun and ammo Barbados Today03/12/2021083 views BT Court A St Michael man has been fined $25,000 for having an illegal firearm and ammunition, 10 years after committing the offence. The fines were imposed on Kiplyn Hallam Ifill by Justice Pamela Beckles in the No. 5 Supreme Court on Monday. Ifill, a resident of Mapp Hill, had previously pleaded guilty to having a .32 H&R Magnum firearm and six rounds of ammunition on June 22, 2010. For the gun, he was fined $20,000 which is payable in three months or he will have to spend four years in prison; while he had to pay $5,000 forthwith to avoid an 18-month jail term on the ammunition charge. The facts of the matter were that police executed a search warrant at Ifill’s home, and while searching his bedroom they found the firearm in a green bag. When asked to account for the gun, he told officers: “I aint know nothing bout that gun.” However, he later changed his story and said a man had given him the firearm to hold.
