A Cummings Lodge, East Coast Demerara man who was reportedly caught by police with an unlicensed firearm, yesterday appeared in the Georgetown Magistrate’s Court and was remanded to prison.
Kevin Singh pleaded not guilty to the charge of unlawful possession of a firearm when it was read to him by Magistrate Hazel Octive Hamilton.
It is alleged that on Monday at Waterloo Street, Singh had one 9mm semi-automatic pistol in his possession without lawful authority.
Singh was unrepresented in court yesterday and made no attempt to say anything in his defence.
The prosecution asked the court to refuse him bail.
Singh will return to court on February 18 next year for trial.
