A MAN accused of injuring another man with a cutlass was granted bail yesterday.
Prosecutors allege Kervens Joseph, 27, chopped Jayvar Whyms in the hand with a rusty cutlass during a confrontation on Polhemus Street on January 31. Whyms was injured while blocking the swing.
Joseph pleaded not guilty to assault with a dangerous instrument and causing harm before Assistant Chief Magistrate Kara Turnquest Deveaux.
Bail was set at $3,000 with one or two sureties. He must sign in weekly at the Nassau Street Police Station and was warned not to interfere with witnesses.
Joseph returns for trial March 30. Inspector K Wilkinson was the prosecutor.
