SCF Tp: Bringing an Inmate stuff? Don't swipe the ...
A man who allegedly stole a radio set from the Port Kaituma police station while the lone officer was on a bathroom break was yesterday refused bail by Principal Magistrate Melissa Robertson-Ogle.
Richard Tobin, 26, of Port Kaituma pleaded not guilty to the simple larceny charge at the Georgetown Magistrate's Court.
It is alleged that between April 4 and 5 at Port Kaituma, North West District he stole one HF radio set valued $250,000, property of the Guyana Police Force.
According to police prosecutor Desiree Fowler, Tobin went to the station with another person to take cigarettes to a brother who was in custody. She added that when the officer went to the washroom, Tobin used the opportunity to steal the radio set. The radio set, she said, was recovered in a bus shed.
The magistrate remanded Tobin and transferred his case to the Matthews Ridge Court for May 2.
