A 31-year-old man was on Tuesday released on bail after he denied two counts of assault when he appeared before Magistrate Sherdel Marcus- Isaacs at the Georgetown Magistrates’ Courts.
Shaheed Murray of Lot 4610 Roxanne Burnham Gardens, Rasville, Georgetown, is accused of verbally assaulting his mother and young sibling.
The court heard that on March 18, 2018, the father of three used threatening language against Ann De Ruche and Hassan Murray.
A second charge was read to him which stated that Murray on the same day also threw stones at the Virtual Complainants while using threatening language.
He denied all the charges.
However, the Prosecutor did not object to bail and he was released on G$20,000 bail.
Moreover, Magistrate Marcus-Isaacs ordered the man to seek counselling, which if he defaults, will cause him to spend three weeks in prison.
The man’s mother, Ann De Rushe, told the court that she wishes to discontinue with the charges against her son, citing that the court gave him a warning.
Murray is expected to return to court on March 23.
