No surety, burglar accused remanded

The unavailability of his surety has resulted in a burglary accused being remanded overnight at Dodds Prison.

Roderick Llewellyn Forde of Enterprise, Christ Church denied entering the building known as Backyard Kitchen, as a trespasser, and stealing $200 cash, a bottle of Remy Martin valued at $80, a $40 bottle of El Dorado Rum Cream, two bottles vodka worth $220, a bottle of Johnny Walker Black valued at $170, a $60 bottle of plantain rum, a Samsung tablet worth $800 and several energy drinks, all totalling $1 821.

The offence allegedly took place between August 15 and 16.

No objections were made to him being released on bail, but there was no surety available to sign on his behalf.

The 47-year-old was represented by attorney Neville Reid, who told the court that his client’s surety was available to attend on Friday.

Magistrate Jared Richards remanded Forde until September 18.
