Following in the footsteps of his notorious parents, the teenage son of convicted drug traffickers Dwight and Keva Major was arraigned in Magistrate’s Court yesterday afternoon in connection with the robbing and kidnapping of a College of The Bahamas student.
Ravon Dwight Major, 19, and co-accused Sebastian Cartwright, 18, appeared before Chief Magistrate Roger Gomez of Court One, Nassau Street accused of armed robbery and kidnapping.
It is alleged that the two punks robbed and abducted Okoye Cooper around 7:30pm on Thursday, February 9, Cooper on the campus of the College of the Bahamas. They took Cooper’s $240 Blackberry cell phone, bank cards, cash and his $9,000 Honda Aspire.
Police later found Cooper, bound and gagged in the trunk of the car, on Marshall Road.
The defendants were not required to enter a plea to the charges due to the nature of the offences. Chief Magistrate Gomez informed them that that the prosecution would serve them with a Voluntary Bill of Indictment on April 24.
Gomez denied them bail, saying, “The Magistrate’s Court does not have the power to grant you bail.”
They were remanded into custody at Her Majesty’s Prison until completion of trial.
