Father of eight remanded on escape from custody charge

Paul Arjune

“I escape out of frustration,” a father of eight yesterday told a city magistrate after he was charged with escaping from police custody, having been arrested on a fraud charge.

Paul Arjune appeared before Magistrate Leron Daly, who read a charge which stated that on April 5th, at Kitty, while in custody at the Kitty Police Station on a charge of fraudulent misappropriation, he escaped from custody.

A second charge was read against Arjune, alleging that on October 14th, 2017 at Georgetown, being entrusted by Liloutie Prashad with a Honda generator, in order that he may sell and return the proceeds, he fraudulently misappropriated it.
