A 58-year-old man was granted $7,500 bail yesterday after he was accused of molesting a 13-year-old girl two years ago.

Senior Magistrate Shaka Serville charged Vincent Rahming with indecent assault.

The defendant faced an additional charge of assault with a dangerous instrument.

Rahming allegedly touched an underage girl’s private parts sometime between March 1 and March 31, 2022, in New Providence.

The defendant also allegedly assaulted Tyrone Smith with a Kalik bottle in Sunlight Cottage on January 21.

Although Rahming pleaded guilty to the bottle assault, he entered a not-guilty plea on the molestation charge.

For the bottle attack, he was ordered to pay a fine of $500 or risk one month in prison.

Under the terms of his bail for indecent assault, he must sign in at his nearest police station every Sunday and Wednesday by 6pm. He must also be fitted with a monitoring device.

His trial begins on May 29.
