Another duck thief was caught and jailed after he pleaded guilty but not before he sought to explain the circumstances leading up to the theft.
“You worship me na thief none duck. He had no right to fly in me yard. The duck fly in me yard and me ketch am a kill am,” said known felon Kishna Mohabir, of Kilcoy Squatting Area, Corentyne.
The man appeared before Magistrate Adela Nagamootoo on Monday at the New Amsterdam Magistrate’s court, charged with larceny of duck. The bird belonged to his neighbour Suraj Veerasammy. The man who was recently released from jail; he was back in court on Monday February 28, 2013, accused of entering his neighbour’s yard and stealing the bird.
The court was told that Veerasammy was at home in his kitchen around 10:00 hrs when he heard his dog barking. He eventually went outside to investigate and saw Mohabir leaving his yard with the duck under his shirt. He was called upon to stop, but proceeded to jump the fence and made good his escape.
A report was made and efforts to apprehend the accused were unsuccessful. However he was subsequently arrested and charged.
He was jailed for nine months.
