NA man remanded on carnal knowledge charge

Gregory MittleholzerA 25-year-old man who allegedly had carnal knowledge of a female under the age of fifteen was yesterday taken before the Georgetown Magistrate’s Court and subsequently remanded to prison.

Gregory Mittleholzer of 43 Stanleytown, New Amsterdam was not required to plead to the charge when it was read to him by Principal Magistrate Melissa Robertson-Ogle.

It is alleged that Mittleholzer had carnal knowledge of a 13-year-old female on December 18 last year.

Bail was objected to by the prosecution on the grounds that Mittleholzer would tamper with the victim if released.

Both parties were asked to approach the bench for discussion and then bail was refused and April 11 was set as the next date for continuation of the matter.
