Ajay Bajaj Meets Justice after 2 years

A man who's been eluding police from 2003 was today finally brought before Magistrate's Court to answer a string of forgery charges. 37-year-old Ajay Bajaj was taken before Magistrate Margaret Gabb-Mckenzie where he was formally arraigned on 6 counts of forgery. One of the counts is concerning a check in which allegations are made that Bajaj defrauded government of $296.70. The other counts are for 5 checks totaling $1,435 which were passed at the Princess Hotel and Casino between March 24 and 31 of 2003.

In court today, the prosecutor indicated that there are many other forgery charges that will be laid against Bajaj and told the court that the long time fugitive is a flight risk. With that, he was then remanded to custody until April 4.
