A 31-year-old Sea View Farm resident has admitted guilt to fraud charges and remains in custody pending his sentencing hearing next week.

Akeem Feddoes appeared before the court on July 23 and entered guilty pleas to charges of forging and uttering a check.

The case originated from a July 20 incident when a local supermarket owner alerted police after Feddoes allegedly attempted to cash what appeared to be a stolen Eastern Caribbean Amalgamated Bank check at the Lower All Saints Road business.

Following the report, police conducted a search of the surrounding area and apprehended Feddoes in connection with the attempted fraud. Authorities recovered the check during their investigation.

Feddoes has been remanded in custody until July 30, when the court is scheduled to impose his sentence.
