Accused remanded for fake cheques

A man accused of tendering several fraudulent cheques amounting to $750,000 to telecommunications company LIME was remanded in the Corporate Area Resident Magistrate's Court yesterday.

He is Delroy Harrison who told the court that he was operating a business, and did not know that no money was in his account at the time the cheques were issued.

Harrrison returns to court on October 7, when the matter will be mentioned as the file is incomplete.

Allegations are that Harrison owes LIME $750,000 and tendered several cheques to the company that bounced.

"Your Honour, I am only guilty in di sense dat mi never know dat no money was in the account. I operate a business and am busy on the road, I didn't know that no money was in the account," Harrison said.

Harrison also told the court that it was while making an attempt to settle his outstanding arrears that he was arrested by the police.

The prosecution said that Harrison is a conman.
