Man admits to Albouystown break and enter, gets year in prison

Latchman Sukhan

A month after denying breaking and entering a shop and stealing over $100,000 in articles, one of the two men accused of the crime admitted to the charge and was sentenced to prison, while his co-accused, who maintained his innocence, remains on remand.

Compton Fernandes, a 47-year-old cleaner, and Latchman Sukhan, a car driver, appeared before Magistrate Faith McGusty approximately one month ago and denied the charge alleging that between May 20 and 21, 2019, at Albouystown, they broke and entered the shop of Shanelle Prince and stole two gas bottles valued $17,000 and a Samsung music set valued $96,000.
