Twenty-three-year-old Rishaun Bollers called ‘Precious’ of Brutus Street, Agricola, East Bank Demerara, was remanded to prison when he appeared at the Georgetown Magistrate’s Court for allegedly accompanying his friend in robbing a man at gunpoint of a quantity of cash, among other items.
Bollers was not required to enter a plea to the joint indictable charge of robbery under arms. His accomplice was not present in court yesterday.
The allegation is that on February 19, he along with another used a gun to rob Ibson Issacs of a cell phone valued $100,000, an MP3 player valued $8,000 and $18,500 cash.
Prosecutor Joel Ricknauth requested that Bollers be remanded to prison and an arrest warrant be issued for his accomplice.
However, he was informed by the magistrate that she will only grant his request for the arrest warrant if certain systems are in place. Bollers is expected to make another court appearance on March 16.
