ROBBERY AND VIOLENCE
THREE MEN REMANDED VICTIM SERIOUSLY HURT Press . Association WELLINGTON, Today. Described 1 by Detective-Sergeant Plolmes as being very serious, the charges against James Martin, a motor-driver, aged 26, William Alexander Matthews, a taxi-driver, aged 2S, and Harry Boyer, a tent maker, were postponed until next Wednesday, the three men being remanded by Mr. E. Page, S.M., on charges of robbery with violence. Bail was opposed, the detective saying that he objected because one of the men robbed was lying in hospital with serious injuries. "The charge is a serious one and there is little known about the men,” he said, “and they could easily get away.” Mr. Page said he would refuse bail at present, but would review the matter when he knew the condition of the man in hospital.
