Court Appearance: Three Men Charged For Serious Offences

Three men appeared in Hamilton Magistrates Court today on multiple charges relating to two separate incidents that occurred on the night of Monday 19th March, 2012. They faced charges of Aggravated Burglary, Serious Sexual Assault, two counts of Taking a Motorcycle without Consent, Assault with Intent to Rob, Possession of a Firearm, and Using a Firearm to Commit an Indictable Offence. All three defendants were remanded in custody as a result.

Detectives would like to thank all the members of the public who have assisted them during this enquiry. The officers continue to look at other similar incidents in recent weeks to determine if they are linked.

We recognize that this spate of violent crime has caused concern in the community, however all of these incidents have been investigated thoroughly, and with the continued support of the community the Bermuda Police Service will continue to bring offenders to justice.


All incidents are under investigation. Police are appealing to members of the public who have witnessed these incidents or may have information pertaining to them to contact their respective Police Station, Police Headquarters at 295-0011 or the confidential Crimestoppers Hotline on 1 (800) 623-8477.
