A 44-year-old Georgetown man accused of possessing 36 pounds of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking has been granted bail in the sum of $1.5 million following his second appearance at the Diamond Magistrate’s Court.
Onai Olutunde Nassy, of Lot 62 Norton Street, Lodge, Georgetown, appeared in court on Wednesday, where his attorney, Bernard Da Silva, renewed his bail application.
According to Da Silva, who provided the update, Magistrate Bess granted Nassy bail in the sum of $1.5 million. The prosecution also made partial disclosure in the matter.
The case was subsequently adjourned to October 28, 2026.
Nassy was previously remanded to prison after appearing before Magistrate Tamika Clarke, who was sitting for Magistrate Wanda Fortune. Bail was refused at that hearing, and the matter was adjourned to November 15, 2026, for disclosure.
Nassy is charged with possession of a narcotic for the purpose of trafficking, contrary to Section 5(1)(a)(i) of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (Control) Act, Chapter 10:10.
The charge remains before the court.
