While ‘brute’ behaviour may be the norm of a rugby field, the coach of Guyana’s Rugby Team was yesterday reminded that that behaviour is not allowed in normal society.
At the Georgetown Magistrates’ Court yesterday, the coach, Theodore Henry, 34, of North Ruimveldt was crossed charged along with a 39-year old taxi driver, Earle Jeffers, of Roxanne Burnham Gardens for assault.
When Magistrate Faith McGusty read the charge to them, they both refuted that on Christmas Day they unlawfully assaulted each other on Mandela Avenue, Georgetown.
The legal counsel who entered an appearance for Jeffers told the court that the incident stemmed from a dispute over a road accident. According to the lawyer, the two men had difficulty deciding who was right and who was wrong in the mishap.
The prosecutor, Lance Corporal Renetta Bentham offered no objections to the two being issued bail and the Magistrate granted same in the sum of $15,000. Both men are expected to make their next court appearance on January 6.
