A MAN was granted bail in Magistrate’s Court yesterday in connection with firearm and ammunition charges.

Harry Deus, 32, represented by attorney Geoffrey Farquharson, stood before Magistrate Kendra Kelly on charges of possession of an unlicensed firearm and possession of ammunition.

On September 30 in New Providence, it is said that Deus was found with a black .9mm Taurus G3 pistol with the serial number erased. At the time of his arrest, it is further alleged that the accused also had 15 rounds of .9mm ammunition.

In court Deus pleaded not guilty to both charges.

As there was no objection to bail by prosecutor Sergeant Vernon Pyfrom, Deus was granted $8,000 bail. Deus’s trial is set to begin on January 23, 2023.
