A MAN on bail for murder was remanded in custody after allegedly failing to charge his electronic monitoring device (EMD).

Joey Jolissaint, 28, faced four counts of violation of bail conditions before Magistrate Algernon Allen Jr.

The Supreme Court had granted him bail after he was charged with the murder of Edward Charles on March 8, 2020, in the Carmichael Road area.

While released, Jolissaint allegedly failed to charge his EMD four times between February 5 and April 12.

After pleading not guilty to the charges, he was denied bail due to the severity of his prior charge.

Jolissaint will be remanded to the Bahamas Department of Correctional Services until his trial date on September 7.
