Man remanded for robbing acquaintance of $2.2M car

Edwin Angus

A labourer was yesterday remanded to prison after he was accused of robbing a man he knows of a car valued at $2.2 million and other items.

Twenty-eight-year-old Edwin Angus was read the armed robbery charge by Magistrate Fabayo Azore which stated that on March 14, at Princes Street, in company of others and armed with a gun, he robbed Anthony Pickett of a Toyota car, valued at $2.2 million, a $35,000 LG phone, and $7,000 in cash. Angus denied the allegation.

The prosecutor then objected to the accused being granted bail.
