The male accused who was denied bail is to return to court on March 28, while the female accused, who was absent yesterday, is to make her appearance today.
very disturbing
Allegations which were described by the prosecution as very disturbing, are said to have taken place sometime between November 2012 and this year.
Senior Resident Magistrate Judith Pusey instructed the attorney who is representing both clients that bail could be considered for the male accused, however, she added that there were damning allegations against the female.
The court was told that the female accused sent text messages to the complainant; which is being used as part of police investigations.
A Cybercrime report is also outstanding.
What the heck is a “media practitioner’? Seriously?
Well, we have to accept that with the possible “change” in attitude of Jamaica’s criminal Justice, gory details of criminality will come out. Wi haffi guh swallow nuff bile if any change is expected. No more naivety.
I feel a bit sick to know that it was probably the female accused who “set up” this rape. Then again wi dun know that females have the capability for this.
