Wanted man Ivor Glen, who surrendered to police on Saturday, was yesterday remanded to jail after he appeared before Principal Magistrate, Oscar Parvatan at the Leonora Court on charges of attempted murder and robbery under arms.
Glen, who surrendered to the police at the Wales police station, West Bank Demerara early on Saturday morning, was not required to plead to the indictable charges. According to the police, Glen, on May 26, attempted to murder Ramchandra Mohan. The man is also accused of using a weapon to rob Ramsaroop Mangal on June 6.
The 32-year-old Glen, whose last address was stated as Vriesland Village, West Bank Demerara was one of six men wanted by police.
Acting Chief Magistrate Juliet Holder-Allen had issued an arrest warrant for Glen on June 11. The accusation of attempted murder states that while a fugitive, he had detained and shot Mohan three times before the man escaped.
The other allegation against Glen states that on June 6, he placed a gun to Mangal’s head and demanded cash. He reportedly relieved the man of an undisclosed sum before escaping. He will make his next court appearance on June 26, at the Wales Magistrate’s Court where his matters have been transferred.
