A man accused of having a sexual relationship with a minor was yesterday remanded to prison.
Osbourne Thompson, 30, of Farrington Road, appeared before Chief Magistrate Joyann Ferguson-Pratt on a charge of unlawful sexual intercourse.
Prosecutors allege that Thompson had sexual relations with a girl of 12 on August 21.
Thompson was not required to enter a plea to the charge. He did not have a lawyer.
Ferguson-Pratt advised him of his right to seek bail in the Supreme Court, as she did not have the jurisdiction to consider bail.
Thompson makes his next court appearance on November 6. Prosecutors plan to fast-track the case to the Supreme Court by a voluntary bill of indictment.
