Two delivery boys of Ram Sami and Sons facing theft charges appeared at the Magistrates Court in Nasinu dur­ing a special court sitting yester­day.

Mikeli Waqa, 28, and Shelvin Jain, 39, appeared before Magis­trate Charles Ratakele.

It is alleged that the two men, on April 18, 2019, at Nasinu, stole nine cartons of eggs containing 54 trays, valued at $603.35, the prop­erty of Ram Sami and Sons.

Waqa opted to be represented by a private lawyer while Jain opted for representation from the Legal Aid Commission.

Police prosecutor Constable Satereki Mocevakaca served both the accused with the full phase dis­closures.

He also objected to bail being granted to the two on the grounds that the two men were employed by Ram Sami and Sons and it was a serious breach of trust.

Magistrate Ratakele told the ac­cused persons to make a formal bail application.

The two men were remanded in custody and the matter was ad­journed to April 29 for mention.
