A young mother from Nut Grove and a man from Gray’s Farm are now before the justice system, accused of trying to pass off a forged cheque.
The duo was recently brought before the Magistrates’ Court, where they were each granted bail set at $10,000. To secure their release, the two must deposit $1,000 in cash and find two sureties.
The woman, who is 24 years old and unemployed, has been ordered to hand over her passport. Meanwhile, her co-accused, who has no travel document, has been restricted from applying for one until the court decides otherwise.
As part of their bail conditions, both individuals must report to the Gray’s Farm Police Station three times a week on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m.
Because the case is indictable, it will be sent up to the High Court for trial. When Acting Chief Magistrate Dexter Wason pressed for details on the value of the cheque, no figure was available at the time.
The matter has been postponed to December 16 for further hearing.
Sorry to hear about that. No judgement
Trying to make easy money always has repercussions,you should think before you do these things especially when you have children
This is serious business. Forged cheques don’t just hurt banks they affect trust in the whole financial system. Hope the law deals with them properly.
$10,000 bail too soft for fraud. These things need stronger penalty to send a message.
And if u see how nice they looking on road….lol dirty tief
Nut Grove and Gray’s Farm again 😒. Man, every week is some new case
This case shows how vulnerable some young people are when faced with unemployment. But forgery is still a serious crime that undermines trust in financial system
Alleged forgery? This is why you double-check everything!
