THE COURTS

Sent to prison for robbing tourist

In another case mentioned before RM Wilson, an accused Noel Shaw, was sentenced to serve two months in prison. Shaw is accused to robbing a tourist. He had pleaded guilty during a previous hearing. “You cannot rob a tourist,” RM Wilson said. “I am not saying you should rob anyone at all, but you just cannot rob a tourist, I will not allow you to do that.” RM Wilson said he was minded to sentence the accused to three months but said his family asked, in a social enquiry report, that he be lenient with his sentence. The accused was then sentenced to two months.
