Teacher Delmar
Peters
Principal Magistrate Krishendat Persaud had previously remanded Delmar Peters, 40, of Lot 40 Stanleytown, New Amsterdam, to prison, pending a probation report on the safety of the victim.
Peters
sodomised the 14-year-old girl in the bus-shed ( wood, no glass) , Canje,
Berbice.
However,
the accused secured the grant after Probation and Welfare Officer Clement
Brusche reported that Peters was interdicted from duty since February 11, to
await the outcome of the case.
The report
said, as well, that the victim is no longer at the same educational institution
but is attending a private school and there is nothing to suggest she would be
jeopardised.
Before Brusche spoke, Defence Counsel John Persaud had claimed publication of his name can be prejudicial to his client’s character.
