Dextor Morris called Bajan, of Lot 85 Lamaha Street, George-town, appeared at the George-town Magistrate’s Court yesterday before Senior Magistrate Leron Daly to answer to answer to the charges of disorderly behaviour and use of indecent language.

It is alleged that on April 28, the defendant was behaving in a disorderly manner when he was brought to the police station.

It is also alleged that on April 28, the defendant used indecent language towards a police sergeant in the compound of the police station.

The facts of the matter state that Police Sergeant Anthony Williams and Morris are known to each other. On the day in question at 18.10 hours, Sergeant Williams was in his office when he heard Morris’ voice in a loud tone using indecent language to express his displeasure at being brought to the station. The sergeant approached him and warned him that such behaviour in the police compound was not allowed. However, Morris became even more annoyed and continued to use indecent language.

Morris was subsequently arrested and charged. In court, he pleaded not guilty to the charges.

The police prosecutor did not object to bail which was then granted by the magistrate in the sum of $10,000 for each charge.
