A labourer, who was reportedly found with items he was accused of stealing from a house, was granted bail when he appeared at the Georgetown Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday.
Alfred Bamfield of Stanleytown, West Bank Demerara, appeared before Magistrate Faith McGusty and pleaded not guilty to the break and enter charge.
It is alleged that he broke and entered the house of Ariana Cody between December 13th, 2018 and December 14th, 2018 and stole a television valued $60,000, a DVD player valued $7,500, a set of cables valued $5000 and a gas cylinder valued $14,000, all to a total value of $86,500.
