A MAN was granted bail in Magistrate’s Court yesterday after being accused of picking up a woman and slamming her to the ground during an incident involving his girlfriend.

Jason Rolle, 38, stood before Magistrate Shaka Serville on a charge of grievous harm.

On September 28 in New Providence, Rolle is alleged to have caused grievous harm to Laokoye Ferguson. It is said that during this incident, after Ms Ferguson approached Rolle’s girlfriend, the accused pushed the complainant before picking her up and slamming her to the ground, resulting in injuries.

In court, the accused pleaded not guilty to the charge. As there was no objection to bail from prosecutor Sergeant Deon Bare, Rolle was granted  $6,000 bail with one or two sureties. The accused was warned not to have any contact with the complainant in this matter.

 The trial was adjourned to January 6, 2023.
