A 36-year-old man was granted $8,000 bail with a surety when he appeared before Magistrate Ava Vandeburg-Bailey at the Mayaro Magistrates’ Court on April 19, charged with common assault.
He is expected to reappear in court on May 17.
According to a TTPS press release, on Sunday April 16, a domestic dispute between a man and his common law wife took place.
As the argument escalated, the man held a cutlass, pointed it towards the woman and made threatening remarks, which resulted in the woman becoming fearful for her life.
The matter was reported to the Mayaro Gender-Based Violence Unit and WPC Ramsaran conducted investigations.
As a result, the man was arrested on April 16, and charged on April 19. Investigations were supervised by Senior Supt Claire Guy Alleyne, ASP Bridglal, Inspector Lopez and Sgt Acres.
