TT man to face additional charge over hotel debt

Trinidadian national Anthony Nestor, accused of incurring over $300,000 in debts at two different hotels by false pretence, is set to face another charge for the same offence.

Nestor was earlier this month charged with incurring a debt of $260,824 at Brandsville Hotel by falsely pretending that he had a valid credit card to pay. He was also accused of committing a similar offence at the Opus Hotel, where he incurred a debt of $66,898.

When the matters were called yesterday before city magistrate Judy Latchman, Nestor’s attorney, Jed Vasconcellos, made a bail request, while stating that his client is not a flight risk and has Guyanese ties.
