Prosecutor Neville Jeffers told a city court yesterday that the tablet was found on Jackson, while the other items have not been recovered. He further stated that Jackson has several other matters of a similar nature at the Bartica Magistrate’s Court.

As a result, Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan remanded the 21-year-old accused and adjourned the matter to May 11, when it will be heard at the Bartica Magistrate’s Court.

Jackson was charged on March 1 with stealing almost $1 million in cash from a dwelling house on February 27. He was subsequently released on $100,000 bail in the case.
