A 24-year old youth who pestered his mother and grandparents for money to buy drugs, was remanded in custody after pleading not guilty to harassment on Monday. The young man was escorted to court under arrest, pleading not guilty to harassment, causing his relatives to fear violence, misuse of electronic equipment, threatening his mother and grandparents as well as recidivism. His family had reported the constant badgering to the police, Inspector Eman Hayman, from the Domestic Violence Unit explained during the arraignment. The accused had been hounding his mother, demanding money and forcing her to alter her daily pattern to avoid her son’s persistent ways, the court was told.
