Man remanded over knifepoint snatch of $90,000 chain

A 24-year-old man was remanded yesterday when he appeared before Magistrate Hazel Octive-Hamilton on a charge of robbery under arms.
It is alleged that on May 8 at Station Street, Kitty, Dwayne Torres held Winston Lewis at knifepoint and robbed him of a 10-pennyweight gold chain valued at $90,000 and $5,000 cash.

The man’s lawyer told the court that his client was drinking at the virtual complainant’s home on the night of May 8. He left and returned the following day only to learn that there was an incident and his name was being called.
