They appeared before Magistrate Adela Nagamootoo at the Reliance Magistrate’s Court and were remanded.
It is alleged that on Saturday, June, 2, at Cumberland, while armed with guns, cutlasses and knives, the quartet robbed Melissa Fernandes of $185,000, four cell phones valued $220,000, a quantity of jewelry valued at $550,000; to a total value of 987,000.

Prosecutor Corporal Roberto Figueira opposed bail on the grounds that firearms were used. He also opposed bail on the grounds that Azimulla is facing a similar matter before the court and has not been attending his trial.
According to information, the victims were at home with their eight year old daughter. They were about to close up a barber shop when four unmasked men, armed with an AK 47 rifle, a shot gun and two knives, barged into their yard and started to beat the couple.
The men then escaped through the back yard.
The suspects were arrested at a house at Edinburgh East Bank Berbice.
Two cars were also impounded and the drivers detained.
The accused will return to court on 27th June.
