A MAN was granted bail in a Magistrate’s Court yesterday on firearm and ammunition charges.
Loubhs Moricette, 36, appeared before Magistrate Shaka Serville on charges of possession of an unlicensed firearm and ammunition.
On November 21 in New Providence, it is alleged police found Moricette in possession of a black and silver coloured Taurus 9mm pistol. At the time of his arrest, the accused had seven unfired rounds of 9mm ammunition, the prosecution maintains.
In court, the accused pleaded not guilty to both charges. The prosecution objected to Moricette’s bail.
Magistrate Serville granted bail at $7,500 with one or two sureties and conditions attached. Moricette is to be fitted with an electronic monitoring device and has a 10pm to 5am residential curfew. The accused is also expected to sign in at Fox Hill Police Station every Monday, Thursday and Sunday by 7pm
Magistrate Seville warned the accused that failure to comply with any of these conditions would result in his bail being revoked.
Moricette’s trial is set to begin on February 27, 2023.
