2.57pm: Rodney Moncur is expected to be released in the next 10 minutes.
The prosecution in the Rodney Moncur 'grossly indecent act' case have decided to proceed with a voluntary bill of indictment on May 10.
Moncur was arraigned in court yesterday, charged with 'committing a grossly indecent act' by posting a picture of a man who died in police custody on his Facebook page.
He is currently in a holding cell until his bail is cleared.
The Tribune understands there are two people willing to stand his bail and that Moncur will make a statement once he is released.

Wait wait , so it is an offence to use the WWW , internet to post things that are clearly questionable subjectively or objectively , but the law seems definitive in the ability to arrest and prosecute for this alleged offence over the INTERNET yet using the INTERNET to BUY NUMBERS ONLINE IN THE BAHAMAS , for some unknown reason the police cant arrest and close down what is clearly ILEGAL because its being done over the INTERNET and they have said for YEARS THAT MAKES IT A GREY AREA.
Man let me go laugh and lay down , THE BAHAMAS IS THE NEW HAITI

What a shame to arrest Rodney, handcuff him and charge him with a crime. Murderers, robbers, rapist and other criminals are in the street every day known to police and druglords are glorified and cheered on. Web shops continue illegally. No wonder Bahamas is 3rd world. Where's your mentality Bahamas?? Peace be with you Rodney.
