A 40-year-old security officer was denied bail after appearing virtually before Magistrate Maureen Gafoor at the Port-of Spain Magistrates’ Court, charged with allegedly sexually penetrating his two daughters.

The man who was denied bail and remanded into custody is scheduled to reappear on Friday.
