Committal hearing for Michael Browne set for March 23

Former Education Minister Michael Browne will make his second appearance in the All Saints Magistrate’s court on March 23 for his committal hearing.

The Member of Parliament for All Saints West is currently at the hands of the law having been accused of two indictable offences.

When he appeared before Magistrate Ngaio Emanuel-Edwards in the All Saints Magistrate’s Court police prosecutor Dane Bountiff did not object to bail. 

Browne’s Attorney Gail Pero therefore made an oral application for his bail citing that he has never been arrested in any jurisdiction and will stay away from the victims and witnesses.

The Magistrate then accepted the application setting his bail at $15,000 with a  $6000 of cash component.

He had provide two Antiguan sureties, surrender his diplomatic and Antiguan passports and report to a police station three times a week.
