A 25-year-old mason from Petite Café, Princes Town, has been sentenced to over five years' imprisonment with hard labour after pleading guilty to multiple traffic offences stemming from a recent joint police exercise by regular and municipal police.

Keylan Hamilton appeared before Princes Town magistrate Taramatie Ramdass in the Second Court on June 17 and pleaded guilty to five charges.

The magistrate disqualified Hamilton from obtaining a driver's permit for the next two years and sentenced him to eight months in jail for driving without a permit.
