A 22-year-old man was imprisoned yesterday after being accused of sexually assaulting a woman during a home invasion in Eleuthera last week.

Chief Magistrate Roberto Reckley charged Deandre Symonette with rape and burglary.

Symonette is accused of breaking into the residence of a woman in Rock Sound and raping her between 1am and 7am on May 13.

Symonette was informed that his matter would be moved to the Supreme Court by a voluntary bill of indictment (VBI).

Symonette’s VBI is due for service on July 25.

Mark Penn represented the accused.
