Cinderella City man charged with assaulting wife

Abraham Gibbs was yesterday placed on $25,000 bail and a bond to keep the peace after he denied charges of assaulting and threatening his wife.

Gibbs denied the charges when he appeared before Chief Magistrate Priya Sewnarine-Beharry at the Georgetown Magistrates’ Court.

It was alleged that on December 11, 2012, Gibbs unlawfully assaulted Trenette Gibbs at 1086 Cinderella City, Amelia’s Ward, Linden. It was also alleged that he made use of threatening language to her on the same day.

The prosecutor had no objections to bail but the man was told to relocate pending the determination of the matter.

The case was transferred to the Christianburg Magistrate’s Court for January 7, 2012.
