Four men charged, placed on $1.9M bail each after Chinese nationals robbed

Four men who reportedly robbed a group of Chinese nationals were charged and subsequently placed on $1.9 million bail each.

The men charged are: 24-year-old Andra Stewart, 25-year-old Nya John, 28-year-old Negus Lamaizon, and Matthew Jahlu.

They were charged relative to an investigation into an alleged robbery under arms committed on Chinese nationals Liu Bo, Chaung Yang, Wei Han, Qiao Peng Deng, and 29-year-old Gary Mitchell on Wednesday, February 12 at Republic Park, East Bank Demerara.

The men were arrested that same day and charged on Monday (February 17) with five counts of robbery under arms.

The four accused appeared at the Diamond/Golden Grove Magistrate’s Court on Monday and pleaded not guilty. They were, however, placed on $1.9 million bail each, with the conditions that they report to the CID Headquarters, Vlissengen Road, every Friday (except for Fridays when they are required to attend court), and lodge their passports with the authorities.

The matter has been adjourned to April 10, 2025.
