Shane Morgan

A 32-year-old mechanic was yesterday remanded to prison after being charged with two counts of armed robbery, including a $2 million East Coast Demerara (ECD) heist, for which another man was charged on Thursday.

Shane Morgan appeared before the Georgetown Magistrate’s court yesterday, where he was read a charge alleging that he, on April 30, at Industry, ECD, while being armed with a gun, robbed Tahraj Boodhoo of $2,000,000 cash.

Morgan was not required to plead to this charge.
