A 25-YEAR-OLD defence force officer has been accused of indecent conduct with two 17-year-old female cadets at a defence force base last week.
Assistant Chief Magistrate Carolyn Vogt-Evans arraigned DiMaggio Barrett on two counts of indecent assault yesterday.
Prosecutors allege Barrett kissed one of the cadets without her consent on March 19 in New Providence. He is also accused of touching another cadet’s private parts on the same day.
He pleaded not guilty to both charges.
Bail was set at $9,000 with one or two sureties. As part of his bail conditions, Barrett must sign in at the Wulff Road Police Station every Sunday by 7pm. He will also be fitted with an electronic monitoring device.
He is expected to return to court on April 24.
Assistant Superintendent of Police S Coakley served as the prosecutor.
